Seeker > 620 KC Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I'm 6'3" and 275lbs. I have one stock passenger seat bolted in on the driver side that is falling apart. A friend sold me some seats that sit too high and I can't get far enough away from the steering wheel to get my legs folded in. It would be nice to have some high-backs since it is a KC. (I saw the thread... and actually have some buckets out of my boat...no way !) What seats have you big guys installed? Comfortable? Easy install? Do they track back far enough? Quote Link to comment
Slixon Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I've installed 80's D50 seats. Just a little work and they looked good. Look around, a lot will work. Quote Link to comment
moparvwfreak Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 With a little bracket mod, I had accord seats in mt 73. They fit me nicely but I had them cocked weird so I put the bench back in. Quote Link to comment
1lo620 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 In the 2 xcabs I had,,,1 of the, had 1st generation toyota MR2 seat....and the 2nd had honda Preludes..My current seat in my 2 standard cabs are preludes and fiero seats... all just need minimal bracket work for them to fit in....But i would say most small import car/truck seats will probly work....good luck 1 Quote Link to comment

Seeker > 620 KC Posted May 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 DMech, Are those covers? With the fuzzy pics I can't tell if it is cloth or fuzzy sheep skin covers. :D Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 On a side note, anyone know where to get a seat re-uppolstered in the area? should be easy enough to find an upohlstery shop over there in the lower mainland. Quote Link to comment
Seeker > 620 KC Posted May 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 I recently got a bid on recovering some bare truck seat frames I have...$220 each not including foam or material! Yikes!!!! If we weren't in the middle of Mexican drug wars down here I'd go south of the border for a bid. Knowing my luck they'd fill em full of heroin and I'd get stopped by the border patrol dogs and spend the rest of my life in a Mexican prison while my poor Dat rusts into dust. :bye: Quote Link to comment
Slixon Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 I was thinking about putting some 300Z seats in my king cab. Idk waiting to see if I get them. On a side note Seeker, my wife is selling her P90X exercise dvd set!? Quote Link to comment
Seeker > 620 KC Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Slix, Thx for the info. Hope you get your seats. On your side note, I'll take your wifes P90X and give you my dog's muzzle! ;) Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 $220 labor is pretty average. Don't get a cheap job like that, get a quality job even if you have to pay a bit more. You'll be looking at the results for a long time. Quote Link to comment
