Swap buckets/console for bench
I put this thread here in hopes of getting more views. thanks.
or is there some sort of seat replacement instead of the rear console?
I saw an active auction on eBay today for the front buckets & rear bench seat out of a Harley-Davidon edition Super Duty, but they were in the $1,300 range. You could probably recoup part of the money by listing the captains seats as a package or selling them separately.
You might try doing some searching on the Internet for auto salvagers. They might be able to locate a rear seat that has been pulled from a wrecked Super Duty.
If you aren't overly concerned about the seats matching, you can start looking for any rear bench for a newer Super Duty. There are several companies out there that specialize in seat covers. Katzkin (http://www.katzkin.com/), for example, could probably come up with a pretty solid match for the factory black leather w/grey stripe.
And, then there is your local dealership. I almost shiver to think what a bench seat costs through Ford, but it is an option.
Lastly, you might want to post over on the National Harley Truck Owners Club forums (www.nhtoc.com). Who knows, you may find another owner that is interested in making the swap for your buckets & center console.
Good luck!
They also sell on eBay (there is a link from their homepage), but give them a call. They get salvage units in all the time.
