Post by: chris.c20 on February 19, 2015, 10:36:50 pm

i got a 77 silverado c20 camper special and the bench seat is torn up a bit and i would like to find some bucket seats to put in replace of the bench. ive read several articles about it but havent found anything specific. anyone know of which seats would work? i have access to a picknpull so im able to search for parts, just need to know which vehicle to take parts off. seats + tracks im assuming.. thanks in advance  :)

If you are wanting bolt in, you need buckets from a Suburban along with the inner seat mounts.
If you want newer seats you need to fabricate something.
There is a post on here with aftermarket bucket install also.

Best seats are original buckets. Then a 60/40 or bench from a 88-94 GMT400 and then I'd say the 95+ trucks.

http://forum.73-87chevytrucks.com/smforum/index.php?topic=28744.0  for pictures.  I prefer the mid 80's-91 Suburban seats because the do have a manual recline knob and armrests.

Yeah I have high back buckets and they are comfortable but the backs don't move.
