DanielC Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 I had this seat repaired, several broken springs, and reupholstered. I spent more on the seat than the truck is is in. Ratsun people are not the most easy people to get a lot of money out of, but if your seat is really in good condition, no broken springs, fresh upholstery, and matched a vehicle, I was putting it in, a few hundred dollars might not be too far out of line.

Master-O-Turbonics Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 I paid $350 to have my seat restored/improved upon...only had one broken spring. Quote Link to comment
tdaaj Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 For a really nice used seat, is give $100-150 if I was looking. Quote Link to comment
mrbigtanker Posted December 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Wow a little lower then I thought.I figured hard to come by seat in good shape would fetch a higher price. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Wow a little lower then I thought.I figured hard to come by seat in good shape would fetch a higher price. More, and people start looking at some nice buckets. Seats worth 1/4 to 1/6 the price of the truck? mmmmm..... nah. Quote Link to comment

I amen that! Ratsun people seem to have very restricted budgets. If you spent more than the truck is worth, that is completely up to you. One of my co-workers was telling me that I should not spend $50 for good fenders for my 720. He believed that fenders are only worth $25. I told him to get with the times. The 80's have come and gone. 1 Quote Link to comment

tdaaj Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I was talking about used seats, now if I were to have one re-upholstered, $325 doesn't sound to bad for my liking. 1 Quote Link to comment
