ZackeryNM Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Maybe several months back I saw a 720 thread that had tons of different seat swap options in it. I've used the searching powers of the forum and have turned up empty handed. I think I remember that izuzu seats fit but the again not to sure. Any hints would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment

ZackeryNM Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Looks like I'll be hitting up more local wrecking yards thanks. Quote Link to comment
ZackeryNM Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Found some clean 99 Rodeo seats. Anybody have luck with those fitting in a standard cab 720? -disregard- Quote Link to comment
ZackeryNM Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Installed the rodeo seats. Came out well. Quick question. Completely unrelated to seats. Anybody have tricks to removing intake gasket from the manifold other than scrapping and using a scrubbing wheel? Quote Link to comment
JonnySarro Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I installed some "racing" seats in a customers 2007 350z about 6 months ago, and bought their factory buckets for $50. The plan at the time was to make waiting room chairs but since I scored this Datsun I think my plan has changed. I have a welder, and know enough to get myself into trouble so I'm going that route. I took a picture when I was sizing them up. I removed the risers and all the mounting hardware from the rails of the 350z seats when I installed their new ones, but the adjuster rails are still there. The 720 seat rails are 15" on center, and the 350z seat rails are 17.5" The 350z seats also need to be lifted a few inches so the bottoms will fall at about the same hight as the factory ones... Its not quite a "piece of cake" but after looking it over it shouldn't get too crazy! Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Do it like this. Can also fit bench seats the same way. Quote Link to comment
JonnySarro Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 I was thinking something similar, but using boxed steel to get the rise. That's a rad diagram though. It gets the idea across pretty perfectly. 1 Quote Link to comment
JoeCool Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 How about this for an idea? A 87-97 Nissan Hardbody or 98-04 Frontier bench seat? Would it fit without a lot of modifications? Because 720 and 620 trucks are scarce in junkyards, and junkyards aren't like Autozone or Walmart, I can't return it if it doesn't fit! My 80 720 seat is busted badly on the driver side, I am sitting on an old lumpy throw pillow on top of half the seat, it's awful. But I want to keep a bench seat, as sometimes my wife AND daughter ride in the truck too 1 Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Cadillac or Buick midsize is nearly an exact fit, and is power operated. Cheap at pnp. Quote Link to comment
filthy forever Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 ^^^ like what joe cool said. I have an 80 720 bench seat that's torn to smitherins. I was in the junkyard today and saw a primo hardbody bench seat and was wondering if it would fit in a 720 because that would be a really nice upgrade. any ideas? B) Quote Link to comment
gryffinwings Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 I'd love to know if this would work. Quote Link to comment
Robert Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 http://community.ratsun.net/topic/59560-1977-620-seat-options/ Great...why did you have to post that? Now I have to go get new seats. I need to stay away from this forum...I have no time for my kids with all these ideas running through my head! lol Quote Link to comment
