bucket seats

i havent been on in a while but i'm trying to get another ford f-150 with the 302 and e4od trans and have a couple questions

1.did any of these trucks come with bucket seats and a center console
or are there any that just bolt in i put seats i had lying around in my old ford and it never felt quite right

2.is there any aftermarket parts to beef up the e4od or will a c-4 or other trans just bolt in i drive kinda hard and have heard these tranmissions dont hold the beatings

thanks for any replies i love this dude

Good luck finding a 302 with an E4OD. Most of them are going to have the AOD or the electronic version, the 4R70W.

Bucket seats and a console were an option, and you can also bolt them in if you can find a set at a junkyard out of an F-series or full-size Bronco.

A shift kit is probably the best thing you can do for an automatic, but I don't know how good of an idea it is to put one in a tranny with a lot of miles on it already.

If you want a bulletproof tranny, get a C6. No overdrive, though.
