has anyone tried or researched how to put 3rd gen seats in a 2nd gen?
Much help would be appreciated!
Thanks

Bump, would like to know this too!
 






subscribing for updates... lol would be interesting... i was told ranger/f-150 seats are direct bolt in....
 






These forums are so spotty for support... Was it FB that ruined it...? IDK
 






Not sure if this helps.
When I'm at my local Pick n pull I find my same year car and one of a different year and see what parts swap. It saves me from buying something that does not fit. I do this with seats, door gaskets, consoles etc....
 






hmmmmm Gen III or F150 seats I do not think will just bolt in
But they can be made to fit.
How are your fabrication skills?

Fab skills are great, lol. Only problem is I'm stuck working in New England (far from my shop and tools) until further notice...
 






well I only ask because welding is usually involved when swapping seats.
I usually end up cutting the feet off of the seats that are going in and welding the base to the feet of the seat that came out, so the end result is a seat that bolts in but came from a completely different floor pan.
