Yeah a 9 passenger conversion van would be the closest thing. He did good here putting the seats.

Same. Where did you get all the hardware or did it come with the seats

If you don’t have those mechanic skills get a car with third and second row bench seats and let a kid ride in the first row passenger seat

Bro you worked hard for 7

You could also just buy a 9 seater suburban or Yukon xl instead of doing this...

Get an excursion

Jesus Cano they are sitting that close I’m traverse and Tahoe’s

Better than those old station wagons with two couched in the back and a family of 12 in the back

Putting a heavy duty tow hitch so if you do get rear ended they would hit the tow hitch first could help some

@@newlion7013 looks good

@@newlion7013 thats pretty smart

Ford van? Dodge van? Nissan. Van?

I saw a dude use bolts as mounts

Imagine worrying about safety. You should just stay home with your wittle helmet on if you're scared wittle guy

@@macbook802i think your kids in the fourth row might be scared when a f-250 crushes them in a collision. Lmao

@@CoffeeTechClub I'm not an idiot, I wouldn't let an idiot hit me

@@macbook802 well try not letting a idiot hit you who’s speeding and you are stuck in traffic. You can’t avoid every crash, it’s not physically possible everytime

Gods not happy with the fact that his kids are driving around with no seatbelts

@@goodpools did you watch the video?

​@@goodpoolsseatbelts are built in.....look over the left shoulder on the left and right shoulder on the right....smh

Jason Urquhart Some people like shooting the club up

Best comment ever!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

SanAntoRain there is some 9 passengers Tahoe

Conversion vans seat 9 actually. But aren’t sporty, I could care less for sportiness. They go for 80 grand new I hear though. But better than the 100k price of Escalades.

It would be nice if manufactures offered more seating options in there more "luxury" trim levels as well.

u can find a 9 passenger suburban, then add the 4th row

No such thing as a 9 passenger Suburban unless you are talking about a super oldie with no center console in front. How old do you have to go back for those anyway?

Jeff Randell , I sell new Chevrolets and, though rare, you can still get a 2017/2018 Suburban with 9 seats w/front bench

J.S.R. Gaming x thanks for watching and the comment. Getting rear ended is a real possibility. Space on side impacts are even worse for everyone. I made it as safe and legal as possible to work with our family size and the vehicle we have. I'm one to be aware of safety and risk, but not live in fear of what if's. I grew up going on road trips in the back of a 78' Suburban with 6 kids in the back with no seat belts playing cards and our Game Boy. Today everyone is wearing a seat belt. We've used it for over 3 years now and it's worked out great!

Good question. My wife goes grocery shopping without all the kids. Folds the seats or takes them out and she has plenty of room. Road trips require a cargo roof box or trailer hitch box.

I have 6 kids and a suburban but thinking on doing same as you for more people, really not worried about groceries or extra cargo, xl suvs has plenty of space to put stuff plus the trailer

AvaCathey you take down the seat

In the roof is easy 🤣

AvaCathey Another option is getting a 9-seater Yukon or Suburban. A little tighter for the passengers as it seats 3 across all 3 rows, but you will have a useable rear cargo area.

not safe

@@mia1shooter Wrong. Facing backward has been shown to actually be safer, particularly on trains where it's more practical.

@@Drunken_Hamster moron... Brain structure is stronger than an automobile structure, so that concept does not apply. Clearly you have no clue what you're talking about so just shut tf up

However good build for what it is.

I found my seats from a 3rd row out of a Chevy Tahoe.

Kids climb through the open middle area between the seats to get in and out very easily. Seat belts are permanently integrated into the seats.

Hi Troy. Thanks for asking. I don't have measurements. I could get you some if your using the exact same seats and brackets as I did. In the video, I screwed my brackets to a piece of plywood. Placed that on the floor then put my seats in place to lock them on the brackets. I checked my clearance to insure the back hatch still closes and kids had a little foot room. You can use longer bolts and 1/2" or 3/4" galvanized pipe nipples over them, to raise the back of the seats up a little. This gave my kids a little more foot room. Just remember that your seats will sit the thickness of plywood lower when installed. The plywood can be used as a template to get the holes in the exact spot needed. Double check under the car to make sure you don't drill into a hose or something. Adjust bracket placement if needed. Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for replying. I followed your board advice and things worked out great!

I had a hitch mounted box on the back to carry all our luggage. It was lockable and still allowed the back glass to open.

Thank You!

Trevor Felt that’s a good question. It would be uncomfortable but possible for adults to sit back there. They would have to sit side saddle. I’ve put younger teenagers back there for short trips and they complain of no feet or leg room. My 4 and 6 yr old think it’s the best seat in the car. I can get you measurements of clearances if that would help?

@@alankingdesign Hey thanks for the response. No its ok, just wanted to know from your experience. thanks again!

Hi Amos. I'm not exactly sure. It was around 1/4" thick x 48"wide x 24" deep. Good luck!

@@alankingdesign thanks

The seats are bolted to the floor. I don't see the issue.

Michael Sullivan Still illegal, and I doubt you can pass inspection.

I pass inspection without any issues. Seats are bolted to the floor and has proper seat belts. I feel this is just as good or better than aftermarket seats you can add to your car. Rear end collisions is an issue and I appreciate the concern. I can see it similar to a side impact collision with passengers inches from the door in any car. The 4th row typically only fit in LARGE SUV's. Anyone doing this will have to weigh the risks, pros, cons and local laws for themselves.

Alan King well said

In states where occupants need to be in a seat with restraints, makes it 100% LEGAL to mount seats in the bed of an open pickup truck.

Don't come equipped with 4x4 though

They climb through the back

I'm wondering the same thing

In the year vehicle I have, I think there is only front driver and passenger airbags. You'd have to research it out.

in 2007 the side airbag for 2nd and 3rd row was optional and then in 08 was standard for suburbans no 4th row as the truck was no designed with this in mind.

Try this on ebay. www.ebay.com/itm/00-2014-Universal-Tahoe-Yukon-3rd-row-seat-brackets/323100859717?epid=908199167&hash=item4b3a4fdd45:g:S28AAOxyUrZSvF5z&vxp=mtr

Search on ebay for "00-2014 Universal Tahoe, Yukon 3rd row seat brackets" . It should be the top result.

custom_manufacturing is his store name.

Captain Gophers Definitely not... you saw there was only a couple of inches left

Pigette Incest Aww. I have a 2008 Tahoe LTZ all options and packages. I wish I could do that. And It also took someone MORE THAN A YEAR TO RESPOND!

You would definitely need a suburban for a fourth row

As far as I know the brackets are the same. The seats I purchased came out of a 2007 ChevyTahoe 3rd row. I searched eBay for brackets with that description to insure I had the right ones. The brackets I used gave me more flexibility than the factory Tahoe brackets.

what size bushing did u put on the drill bit?

for you to make more foot room by placing the 3 quarter inch bushing under neath the rear bolt, what size bolt did u use?

My 7 and 10 Year old don't complain of feet room yet. It is still tight. I gained more room by raising the back brackets of the seats up with a bushing. It gave me another couple of inches by doing this. By raising the back up it also pushes the seat back a little and still allows the back door to close.

I would direct message Custom Manufacturing and ask if they will make an exception for you. You may need to pay a little extra in shipping.

Hi Slick Vic. Search eBay for "tahoe 3rd row seat brackets" by custom_manufacturing. He offers a couple different options depending on the seats you are able to get.

I found him, thank you.

Alan, do you mean we need exactly the brackets that will fit the seats or all the way around?

www.ebay.com/usr/custom_manufacturing?_trksid=p2047675.l2559.

It was 8 years ago when I posted this. You will just have to do a search on eBay for "Suburban, Yukon, 3rd row seat brackets". You can find used brackets or new Universal brackets. Good luck! Thanks for watching.
