bodydrop seats?

jminzler · 11-06-2009, 12:08 AM

what seats are you guys running with bodydropped trucks. i have a set of blazer buckets but now since we cut the floor for the tranny tunnel my seats dont fit. any helpful hints will be taken.

i used seats from a honda civic, of course i had to modify the brackets. you should be able to modify you brackets and use whatever seat you want

checkout bomber seats...kind of pricey but pretty cool

yeah i would love to keep my blazer buckets, hell they are all power heated leather lol who wouldnt want to keep them.... i might try some things with them.

post some pics of your tranny tunnel, maybe some of us can give you some ideas on what to do bud

yea i agree post some pics so we can see what your dealing with

jminzler · 11-06-2009, 01:32 AM

these are prolly the best pics i really got of where the sets go. if you look closely you can see where the studs stick up to bolt in. but the one bolt spot is now raised 2"s you can see the hole in the one pic pretty good. so give me some ideas....

mmmm cant really remember how the back right of the frame looks...youd probably be able to figure out a way to cut it and make it the 2" higher that you need.

idropem96 · 11-06-2009, 08:28 AM

it doesnt look too bad, i would unbolt the bracket from the side of the seat thats not fitting correctly, install the seat and take some measurements.

I Notched My Trans Tunnel Around My Seat. And Lowered The Floor Under The Seats 3".

I running bravada seats but instead of raising the stock floor for the drive shaft I had SD make me one that goes all the way from the trans tunnel to the rear wall, my seats are really close to the driveshft tunnel.

it would help if you would cut the rear out from the back of the transmission to the rear of the cab and replace it with a round driveshaft tunnel
