bucket seats

I hope someone may be able to shed some light on my question. I have a bench seat in my 350. I want buckets or a split bench. I have been to salvage yards all over and can't find any. I do not want to pay E-bay ship price. Anyway, to get to the point, I have measured the F-150 seats and they seem to be the same size, same bracket angle and the holes seem to line up to the floor pan. I went to the dealership and they cross referenced the part # and said they did not match. I dont trust the dealership.
Will F-150 seats fit it superduties????? I would like to know forsure without ripping out my seats and paying for new ones to put in.

thanks

You can't find any wrecked F series with buckets? Ask the salvage yard(s) to search their on-line databases. They might be connected to the salvage network. Can't remember what the network is called. Basically, they can hunt for a part from other salvage yards and order it from them, then sell to you.

Just a possible idea to help with salvage part. Good luck.

I'm sorry, for some reason i thought that it was said somewhere that you were working on a '96 model. I do not know for sure if the '01 seats will work but you can make them.

I put seats from a wrecked miata in a nissan truck so im sure you can swap from a 1/2 to a 1 ton
