I just installed these Beard "Street Seats" in the Pumpkin today. Just had to do the color match thing ;)

Looks nice.... I notice it retains the stock seat belt in addition to some quick release belt.. How does this setup work?
 












Occasionally when wheelin' on offcamber or steep trails the stock shoulder restraint/seatbelt will lock up and you can't move an inch. Instead of releasing the shoulder harness and having no restraint I pop it off and still have the lap belt in place.

I occasionally use just the lap belt when I'm doing slow crawling.
 






Nice :thumbsup: . You'll love how comfortable those suspension seats are compared to what you had in there. Not to mention how well they hold you in on the off cambers.
 






Cool! Are they mounted on the stock seat sliders or to your cage? I cant remember how you had your old seats.

I am going to be ordering some suspension seats next week and have to figure out some mounts for them.
 






I see you got to keep the center concel like you wanted ;)

Were these painted, or did you actually use color match liquid? Are these seats like Recaro?

Neither. I ordered them with orange vinyl on the outside and black cloth inside.

They're mounted to the cage. The old seats had sliders. I had to remove them to get the new seats at the right height since these seats sit a bit higher.
 






Nice seats! I just installed the same ones two weeks ago but mine are the Black and Grey ;) If anyone is looking for a seat upgrade this is a really comfy seat. Not very cheap though ;) I really like the orange too.
 






Those look great Rick, really add some "POP" to the beast too!

Any plans for the back? 4 buckets?
 






Possibly a third seat in the center.
 












Good idea, I see alot of Ranger super cab guys doing that these days, kinda ruins the center console idea though :)
 












yeah about those seats?? have em?wanna sell em?
 






I just put them in the shed. The drivers seat is pretty beat up.

So much for lawn chairs going in the fire at truckhaven. Looks like we are moving up to bigger seats now. :confused: :D
