Dunno how TO post em in a thread. Also do you just want buckets in your truck or what? Or more of a racing style?

top of the seat is 49 inches, the bottom about 52.5 inches at its widest point, couldn't get the bracket measurements its too dark and theres no battery in the truck.

Okay. From what I know (which is very little) pathfinder bench will fit. Maybe something out a ranger, a Mazda pickup, a might Max. Maybe the second row out of a suv... BUT nothing is gonna fit exactly like the stock SO I would keep the stock, cut the brakets, measure 6 times mark(instead of measure once weld 3 times), weld on the factory brackets an out in truck.

how much you wanna spend? google Tea's Designs. Or get a copy of Street Rodder. Teas Designs seats are S E X Y as hell.

I think the bench out of my Isuzu is still sitting at the old barn too... I'm sure it looks like straight up ass crack, I wrecked that truck uh.... 4 1/2 years ago, and the bench was long gone by then.

btw... layinframe your interior is nice........
