You can use a seat from up to a '96 by swapping your tracks to it, much nicer seats available out there in the newer stuff.

Too bad you guys are so far away. I have three that are in great shape. One brand new foam and everything.
Ca. guys that install racing seats and the like have these in the garage. They get used as shop couches when the fellas come over and need a place to set while they enjoy a cold beverage.

you can pretty much put any seat you want in it, just depends on your fab skill. seats out of any of the new ford trucks fit you just need to make brackets for them.

Yup. A guy tried to sell me a stock seat for like $200 the other day. I just kinda laughed and told him I have a hard time getting rid of them and that I did a 2 for 1 with the last 2 I had and sold BOTH for $10 total. I think he got that point that he was asking too much

Look for a split back seat, much easier to get to the junk in back of it. mine came from a crew cab I believe

We both do. You have that gray one, and I have the one that came out of the brothers ride when we upgraded to leather remember? Sheeesh, I forgot about that one, lol.

Right now I have 3 of them that I don't know what the he$% I'm going to do with them. Putting buckets in. Got mine out and the two parts trucks that I'm using out too. I guess only one is in decent shape. The others are more/less wore out.

I'm not positive what you are asking here - but based on the post above mine - maybe you were asking cost. If so - to ship across country would be really expensive - and yeah it would be more than the seats are worth more than likely.

Just be patient and watch craigslist for trucks parting out in your area. Newer seats are nicer and often have cupholders/arm rests built in!
