What seats will fit the best??

I am looking into replacing the seat in my 95 f350 regular cab I was wondering which seats will work the best, it has a bench with fold down armrest from the factory. I would like to go with buckets and a console, possibly from a 99 up super duty. Has anyone tried this or something different that worked well, I know it wouldt be a bolt in thing I can work with that. Any input would be great

Thanks
John

Gonna be tough finding something from another truck that will work with your 95 regular cab. I dont thinkt he 99+ superduty seats will work as the cab is a whoooole lot bigger on the superduty. These 92-96 fords have extremely cramped cabs and alot of the seats from other trucks stretch out and are more roomy because of how much bigger and longer the cabs are in newer trucks.

I suggest fiing some buckets from a nice 92-96 ford, even maybe from a supercab eddie bauer. The cab dimensions are the same so the seat will be designed to fit int he cramped cab.

I was thinking the same thing, I figured if you could get super duty seats in an older truck you wouldnt be able to shut the doors. Heard that some guys have used Dodge seats that worked decent, but I havent seen any in person. The bad thing about the 92-96 seats most that you can find are broken down and ripped and torn, I have got that now, but there is always the option of getting them recovered

Super duty bucket in our 03 Xl has buckets that measure same as old f150 just use an older console . But the tracks will have to be modified. If I was going to do it I'd use old 92 -96 tracks and mod them. I can get my old 94 seats recovered for alot less than I've found any SD seats. Like $300.00 compaired to $600.00 for the SD'S .And old ones just bolt in .Good luck
