I have an 87 squarebody crewcab, and I'm looking to change out my seats to newer front buckets and a newer rear bench for the back. Has anyone done this to there's? Do the seats out of a 99+ silverado or sierra fit okay? Any info or pics would be appreciated.

Thanks

After the squarebody style the floor profiles changed significantly, there's no more big rise in the floor so the seats in newer trucks have riser brackets bolted on.

All you really have to do is remove the riser brackets and make your own brackets to adapt these seats to your floor. No biggie. I've seen a lot of people do it and typically they just make a simple framework out of 1" square tube with holes for bolting to the seat frame then tabs for bolting to the floor.

Please be sure to check out my truck shop projects and remember: if I made it look easy,
it's only because you weren't here to see me kicking parts, cussing, and throwing tools. :mrgreen:
