the seats worked out great really enjoying them, took a little work to put them in but what doesnt when you get into something thats universal. Had to make up mounting brackets to get the seats the height that i wanted.

yea I had to make up custom brackets also, I put cross braces in them also to keep the seat from rocking because it was so high up. Also put heavy duty steel plates on bottom of cab to bolt through for added protection.
