bucket seats?

I have an 88 f-50 single cab I really enjoyed the bucket seats in my old ranger. What if any year/s bronco could i pull the bucket seats and center consiole from and easily mount in the f-150?


also I have the 4.9l sixer and I was wondering if I should go with the heavier duty mazda tranny or go for the t18?

I really would enjoy the 5 speed mazda because of the similarity in handling to my ranger and the 5th gear, but I hear the t18 is almost as indestructable as the straight six.

Well you probably could get any bucket seats from a 87-96 F150 with buckets or console or a full size bronco

You can get seat bases from any 80-97 Bronco/truck with buckets (id get the 92 up bases they go forward further. ) and add any maker seats easily . I have used 2002 F450 bucket on stock 94 bases very littlefabbing and some explores r bolt in I'm told

You will need to drill extra holes and use Large fender washers to reinforce. Dont forget seat belts the ones for buckets stand up.

Looking for a set of gray or red ones to replace my worn ones right now.
