Need replacement bench seats
« on: October 17, 2010, 10:48:23 pm »
The bench seats in my '86 crew cab are kind of tired. The fabric is okay, but the foam is disintegrating pretty badly and sagging in the wrong places. I have some pretty good junk yards here, so I'm wondering what I can harvest new seats from. From my reading here, I think a front bench seat from a Suburban will bolt into the front and the bench seat from any regular cab will bolt into the back. Do I have that right? Are there any other vehicles (Blazers, etc.) that I can use? I don't want bucket seats. I like the benches.

Thanks!

for an 86, you can get the front out of a Suburban, for the rear you can get them out of any 82-91 pickup.

I sell seat foam for these but ONLY the bottoms for the 82-91.

What's the going rate for seat foam? My driver's seat only supports one cheek. LOL

No it isn't listed.  They are NOT cheap...  I have sold about 5 in the past 3 years..

the 82-87(91) seat bottom ONLY is $225 + oversize shipping
the 73-81 full set it $369 + oversize shipping.

Stop by an auto upholstery shop. They may be able to get you a good deal.
