You'll need brackets. The bumpsides with factory buckets have specially-designed brackets for our floorpans and are available as a reproduction, or you could just weld up your own custom design.

A bench seat up through 97(? I believe.) will fit by unbolting the seat tracks off the new seat and bolting the seat tracks from your original seat in their place.

I guess I shouldn't have forgotten to pay closer attention to your post title.

Tomorrow I should have the brackets welded up for a 96 ford truck 40/20/40 with 98 ford explorer power seat bases for both driver and pass.
