New Seat

[happeetxn]

Today at the junk yard I found a seat out of a Pontiac Montana. It was in good condition and very comfortable, my driver's seat is in baaaad condition. Any idea what I would be facing trying to swap these seats out? Anyone done this with seats that were from a vehicle other than a F-250/350?
Thanks,
Craig

sounds like a cutting torch and or welder might be the tools for that job

if ya can get the brackets off the montana, then all ya gotta do is mount the bracket to the truck....

Everything is there, both seats the whole nine yards.

Well I have another question here. Are there any seats from another vehicle that would bolt right in??? I know with jeeps, the seats out of mustang 5.0's and pontiac grand prix bolt right in without modifying or welding. I only ask cuz my truck's vinyl seat has seen better days, so I'm tentatively looking/saving up for a new seat

Craig, what did you determine about that seat fitting? Eventually I would like to replace the back bench with a pair of buckets.

I haven't been back out the the junk yard yet. I ahve to do something though because my drivers seat is getting to be beyond uncomfortable. I am hoping to go next week, but with fuel prices going the way they are (This is where I sound like I am in the 6th grade) I am considering letting the truck sit and ride my bike to school. Please go easy on the jokes I have thin skin. NOT! Joke away

I hear you. Im giving consideration to the bus. And that is NOT something I like to think about.

Antonio and I are doing more in depth research on bio reactors before we jump in. When we come to a conclusion I'll key you (and everyone else) in on what we determine.
