Also on the regular cabs I pull the seat rod so it will lay all the way back against the cab and you get a little more room.
that will help a lot with my f100! didnt even think about that but when i swapped the back rests with the bottoms yesterday i noticed that rod, thanks!

Hey no problem! I've got a 91 that has a really nice seat I got from the back of a 93 crew cab, bolted right in and away we went!

85's seat came from a t boned 85 f150 that looked like new inside and out, pull the carpet too. Seat and carpet was like $25 at that time. Guess they figure nobody wants a bench seat or old carpet.

I took the carpet to the carwash and used the hot soapy water on it. I did the same thing with my obs bucket seats in the 89 pre install. Sure cleans em up just be sure to rinse ALL the soap off/out or it will reattract dirt.
