Well, I'm still on the hunt for new seating arrangements. I've found a possible deal, but don't know if it'll work or not.

I'm wondering if it'd be possible to mount a set of SD buckets in my 150? From the pics I've seen, the base looks to be the same, but of course I can't compare any side-by-side to those from a 150.

I was wondering if anyone would mind measuring theirs for me. Or if anyone else knows if this will work or not, I'd greatly appreciate it.

If you can let me know what exactly you want measured, I'd be happy to do it.

The distance from bolt hole to bolt hole. Left to right, and front to back. And maybe the height from bolt holes to seat bottom.

Thanks

OK Left to right is 11.5" front and back. Front to back appears to be 18", hard to measure with a cross bar in the way. From front bolt to bottom of upulstery is 8". There are also 4 bolts that mount the seat to the bracket, and those are 13" front to back and left to right. If you already have buckets in the front and those holes line up, that might be the way to go. Also, the bracket that mounts to the floor is angled down toward the front of the truck, but could be bent to accomodate a flat floor. Hope this helps.

I should also mention that these are not the true buckets, but the seperate seats with the jump seat in the middle. I believe they are the same as the buckets with the third seat in between instead of the console.

Well, that was what I was afraid of. But thanks anyway.

From everything I've found, it seems that the buckets with console are the same as the 40/20/40 setup, except for the seat rather than console.

As for the angle down thing, yeah our seat mounts do that too, but unfortunately the measurements are way off.

I guess those guys behind the desks out there in Detroit are a bit smarter than I am.

Oh well, back to the perverbial 'drawing board'.

Thanks again Niels.
