factory bucket install quetions????

Post by bossperformance »

Hey guys just put my factory buckets in the truck. For the outside bracket I used the outside two holes that were used for the bench seat. For the inside bracket I drilled holes were the factory dempels were in the floor. They seem to fit ok but even when the are far forward the backs sit on the back of the cab. They are not missing the stops. Cant understand why they hit the back of the cab. Anyone ever had this problem? Any help apperciated, Thanks Kevin

You're using factory bumpside bucket seat brackets? You didn't get them switched side-to-side, did you?
