i'll try and grab some picks, but i got a nice seat recover kit from raybuck for my 75 f250. it was really easy to put on and looks really good with the exception of me not being able to remove some rippling near the release to tilt it forward... ironically spent more on that than i did on this king ranch seat

Have you guys ever considered having your factory seat reupholstered? A good Upholstrey shop can add foam, special features etc to make your original look brand new.

The seat looks really good did you have any issue with the seats rubbing the door panels?

That is what I did for my 72 f250. There is a foam patch on it that I did on the driver side as well.

I reupholstered my front seat in my 75 super cab and it came out really nice. it was double the price and double the effort of putting this king ranch seat in that has cup holders.

all the way up to 94 are literal bolt in swaps for bench seats and at least from 95-2004 the rear seats of a crew cab are the same 60" wide. i get no rubbing because the stock bench is 60" wide too.

I thought about it but it was considerably more expensive and I actually liked the feel and comfort of the superduty seat.

What is the color of your truck? It looks like my color, but there is no color code on my door tag.

this was a Wimberley white truck originally and the previous owner had it painted (poorly) this color. the pics make it look more sea foam green i think but in real life it looks like ford - frost turquoise
