Sounds like you already know what to do :wink:

Is it going to be an easy bolt in or do you have to fab up some brackets?

seat brackets

Post by plowboy34 »

Since we are talking about some seats I was just wondering if anyone had a set of seat brackets (tracks) whatever you call them for a 60/40 seat for a first generation Ranger. My son got a 60/40 seat out of a 94 Ranger and the seat brackets are different, having a heck of a time finding some first gen brackets here in my small town area. Didn't know they were different and tried to install them, boy was major bummed cause they did look good sitting in there and we couldn't get them bolted in. Now they sit in our living room and momma getting a little impatient with the boy....LOL. I keep defending him that it's not his fault so she cutting him a little slack, so if anybody can help him out I would greatly appreciate it.
