3rd row seating

[mmoughon]

Can you replace the third row seat in a 2003 Explorer with the 50/50 split seat out of the 2006-2008 models? If so, how hard would it be to replace it?

Any thing is possible as long as you have enough cash! LOL I am no help, I know!

I was wondering this too. I can't seem to find an answer using the search function.

My gut is telling me that they're too different to be easily interchangeable. If I remember correctly, 4th gens have seats that collapse into the floor, but 3rd gens bend forward.

I'm also no help, sorry!

Is there even a write up on how to change a 3rd gen 2 row to a 3rd gen with 3 rows? Wife is starting to get on me to do the conversion. I say the write up on the 4th but how much difference is there?

A forum search (with keyword '3rd row', filtered for 2002-2005 forums) yielded these two threads:

I know you can add a 3rd row to a 2 row Explorer. What I want to do is replace my current third row with one from a 2006-2010 Explorer that has the 50/50 split third row. That's what I can't find an answer on.
