this is one of my most favorite videos you guys did where you show people that the newer seats can fit in the older trucks and how to do that, I can dig it.

I did this to my 71 F100 and it came out nicely. Initially I wanted to stay with the original bench seat but mine was just too springy, I thought I was going to hit the roof one time on a rough rail crossing, lol. The armrest was a big deal as well, I had one that sat on the bench but it moved around a lot but it did have storage so that was a plus. All in all this is a great change and I kept my original bench if it is ever needed.

Yep, it will work I did exactly what u did to your truck mostly for the arm rest and the cup holder that 92-96 has. Love to incorporate new Ford into the old Ford stuff. Good video, two thumbs up

i have the exact same seat in my 67 f-100. it came out of a mid 90,s Ford Van . it was the third row seat same color . i used Tuff-Stuff to clean it with a stiff bristle brush. i then used gray and black Dupilcolor spray dye to give it a tow tone look.

Thanks for the video, that's the exact same seat I am putting in my 79 and now I know how to do it. Thanks and that's a very nice truck you put that seat into.

Those Bissell pet/carpet cleaners would make that seat look like new. I was able to get a stain I thought would never come out. My carpet looks new. I just picked up a '73 F100. I like the headsets on the later seat for safety reasons.

That’s awesome man, that’s definitely gonna be a future upgrade…🙌🏼💪🏼

I did this 20 yrs ago and used a new 97 seat out of a F150. I walked into a shop that did aftermarket upgrades for dealerships at the time. There were dozens of seats in storage and they had little interest in how to repurpose them. I took it off their hands for $100. I didn't modify the the mounting brackets, they matched in the rear and in the front, I bent a piece of 1/4" flat stock and mounted the front to the correct height.

Would this work with a 40/20/40 seat from that era? I had a 1995 F-150 with one of those and, as I remember, the individual seats were mounted to a pan/frame that was bolted to the truck floor. That was a comfortable seat!

I learned to drive in my dads 73 f100, 302 3 on the tree...god I want one of those trucks for myself so bad!

I love your cat! And now you too!!

Good project! I've seen quite a few folks do this. Good tips. How about putting up an Instagram video of you driving the truck with the new seat? Thanks!

Do you have a video on drag and tie rod link replacement?

More of this. :)

So would an f100 bench seat fit into a 96 f150?

Man! It looks like it's cramped in there with that newer seat. These trucks are tiny compared to today's F series. I just started restoring my Dad's 70 F100. I think I'm going to get the original recovered. Thanks for the video and showing us some options...

Wish I could find a reasonably priced bench seat to put back in my '82. Don't want head rests I have that already with my explorer seats and I really want to put a bench back in and have it covered in leather.

I have a '65 F-100. After '96 did the seat design change or can you use an even more modern seat?

I put the 86F-150 seat in my 68 a lot more comfortable than the original. And I did not have to do anything to make it fit. Yeah the old seat was a slip n slide lol. Ok i had removed my fuel tank and moved it out of the cab. Never did like riding with bomb inside the cab with me. My dads 65 chev was the same.

Show us how to clean those seats. Honestly because they are grossing me out :) I got JY seats for my Ranchero but had to saturate them in cleaner.

I moved near Aiken recently. Are there any pull a parts around here? Trying to find a seat for an 84 f150.

How would it be different if you were installing it in a 73 F100?

Do the later seats not fit 1966 trucks?

Yeah the original seats we called a slip and slide. Lol. My 68 seat came out of an 89 f-150. It only had one burn hole in it.

I wonder if Chevy was that smart? Got a 77 I’d like to swap seats with!

I disagree , the original bench seat for me is the ultimate iconic classic for any pre 80’s truck ! However great informative content

My 66 is getting 07 buckets

kiddy cat i gots a tabby cat to

Finally cat.

I like the falcon . I own a falcon and a bump as well. Not as in good shape tho🤣

Delete the stock fuel tank & install a 70 Mustang tank in the frame.

My cat's breath smells like cat food.

90s seats more confortable than 70s seats? Blasphemy. Real springs and a bench seat win everytime

Says ford keeps things the same..... lol but brake lines nah they change that stuff daily
