Do a search on "seat brackets" and the like and you will find a ton of info in the forum.  Suburbans have the same floor as a pickup I believe; but you have to cut the floor of the donor to get a bracket.

The front seat in Suburbans are the same as pickups with the exception, they don't fold forward and the rear part of the bracket curves down in a Suburban where it curves up in a pickup.  I have heated Suburban bucket seat brackets to fit in my 86 C-10 as others on this site have done.  There are several posts that have been made regarding this subject.
