iive got a 77 f250 with a pretty rugged bench seat in it right now. the seat is worn and hard, and i was wondering if there were any bucket seats (that are comfy) that i could swap in without much issues... thanks for any input.

I bought a set of Qualitex seats...A little pricey but well worth it...

seats from 73-96(F150) 98 on F250/350 will bolt right in. Newer seats with a few fab ups will bolt in. I put a split Dodge seat in my bronco it was easily fab'd to bolt right in. I wanted Ford seats for bolt right in but couldn't find any in good shape cheap. So the price i got on the seats from the Dodge fit the bill.

you are 100% positive that the swap from those fords will work?? ive listened to a few too many peeps who said this or that will swap right in, only to find out that it didnt. if your 100% sure it works then i will have to see about hitting up our junkyards and getting some seats....

sorry to steal your thread, but will a 90 suburban bucket seats work? i've got a 78 f150 with a terrible bench. the drivers side is so worn that when i drive i sit on an angle. its funny, but gets old.

Muddun, Yes just they are a bolt in swap on bench seats. If the seat is like a 3way bucket you'll have to drill 4 extra holes for the inter bolts. But the 4 outter bolts are the same. You can also unbolt your seat from its frame and bolt a new seat onto it.

To use the burben buckets you'll have to fab the seats to fit your seat frame or do a lilttle fabbing to mount the buckets to your truck
