I don't know the best place to buy ranger parts, but, as far as the seats go, I have installed seats from Thunderbirds to Caddy's into Ford trucks over the years. The best way I have found is take the measurements from the seat you remove and apply them to the ones you install. Any difference can be made up from thinwall square tube or 1/8" think angle iron. The tubing will require mounting tabs, but the flanges can be used to bolt through on the angle. Once you get them setup, you can mark and weld them to your seat.
