Leather Buckets

I put some 2nd gen 40/20/40s in without much trouble. 3rd gens have been swapped in too.
If you are going to fab something, the only limit is your ability and wallet.

I have 2 trucks (reg cab 91 and ext cab 93) both with leather buckets from a Durango. The 93 has heated leather with power lumbar, the 91 non-heated with manual lumbar. I cut stock 1st gen bucket mounts and welded the power sliders to them. Everyone that has seen them thinks they are factory. They also have a ram's head embroidered in the headrest.

I am pretty computer illiterate, so I guess I will do what any upper 40's non-IT type does, turn it over to a teenager. I'll give my 16YO son a bit of summer "homework" and try to get some pics up.

Being only 5'6" I find the 2nd gen seats hit me in the back of the calf instead of my knees extending past the enge of the seat.
On a 5speed truck I'd have issues with the clutch.
I found a set of factory buckets and put them in.
I want leather tooso once these are worn I'll get them re-upholstered and add seat heaters which are available aftermarket.
