That’s amazing! I’ve been looking for a video describing the process and this did just that. The detail you went into was awesome and you have no idea how much I appreciate this!

This is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much for the detailed run down

I'm currently following your instructions and welding it up tomorrow. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the video walk through. Seats look awesome!

Great video.. thanks for the details and putting all the right info in.

I had the link for the old video and it no longer worked. Then I found that you reloaded it last month. Getting ready to put this conversion in my 1961 C10. Thanks for reloading. Great Video!

Thanks bro for this video . Putting my millermatic to use for my 73’

Super helpful video!

Top quality video here, man

Just picked up a crew cab seat from a 2010 Sierra for my k10 and happened to stumble across this video. Should help👍🏼

I did this seat swap following your video, everything works as you said and showed. The seats are narrower and I hugged the driver side when aligning to keep the steering wheel as centered as possible, although not perfect its good enough. Thanks for the video.

How do you like it after sometime now with it installed? Does the bucket center with the wheel?

AMAZING🔥 Thank you sir

Well done

Thank you for ur video. I'm A big guy. I'm gonna do the same thing and Also for A little more clearance I'm gonna get a shorter steering column as well. That should be perfect room for me when I'm done

Great idea

Thanks for the info.

Great job and very informative. I’m going to try and install some Chrysler 300S seats in my 76C10 and hopefully mine will come out as nice as yours. Any tips or advice for my build would be appreciated

Love the video! Looking to do this in a 65’ with a gas tank in the cab. Not sure if you have done this with a gas tank in the cab , but wondering if you think it would still fit ? Thanks

With the newer seat being narrow, doest it still fall inline with the wheel? Or is the bucket off a bit?

Is the crewcab seat much different than a Tahoe seat besides the Tahoe bottoms folding forward? I have one from a 17 Tahoe.

Does this not put a lot of strain at the “front passenger” side of the middle seat? Seeing as it’s only connected at the back does it not sag?

Looking at doing this. Is it actually comfortable being the back seat? And does it make it a little weird as it is more narrow as far as reaching for the door handle or window crank?

Is the seat rail aluminum or stainless? You think I can oxy acetylene weld it?

are they comfortable? like something you could drive for a couple hours ?

I have bucket seat rails attached to the original seat bracket. Can it still work?

What did you do with the black seat that was in the truck at the front of the video?

Does this move the steering wheel to the driver alignment any?

Question with the new seats is there any problems with the seat belt buckles?

I flipping love this video! Thank you for putting it together. Question, the black plastic clips that you describe at approx 1:52sec. Is there a way you can re attach them to finish covering the brackets when finished?

@angelesautomotive

The plastics cover the seat mounting brackets that get removed, you would have to cut the plastics and fab up some new slotted mounts for them to clip into

I wonder if this works with 2010 Tahoe 2nd row seats.

How did you get the seat cover to fit over the upper tabs @ 6:48 ? Thanks

I WANT THIS IN MY C1500

If I cut the top pieces at 1”, I get about a 3.5” opening on bottom

Have you installed a seat like this into a 67-72 C10?

You should do the front high country seats in the c10

Do the back of the seat lock in place?

Hey i just purchased front seats out of a 2016 Silverado and im wanting to put them in my 84 chevy i wasn't aware of putting the rear seats in it is that a big no or would it work just fine? Also is there a way a person could keep them electric in a square body? Also this is one of the best seat swap videos ive watched detailed and you make it look easy thanks for the video

No, just boxed in and welded the back of the seat frames together, makes it rigid enough, wouldnt be able to install the seat material and foam if you weld the front of the seat frames together

Well explained, good camera work. How much higher do you sit than stock bench? (at 6'8", I don't want to sit much higher in my '81)

I agree

How’s the space on the sides do you lose a lot of crap

There is a 73-80 seat in my 87 and the seat back doesn’t go all the way to the back of the cab. Does this conversion touch or come close to touching the back of the cab at the top of the seat? I’m 6’6” so I need all the space I can get.

Thank you, amazing info! How do the seat belts line up? I am in the middle of my seat swap and I need to replace my stock belts as they don't retract anymore and are now the wrong color. I see some good universal retro offerings from places like Jegs. I also see retro euro belts that have the red push button and look more the belts that would go with the newer seats. I really need to install some new belts with my 2015 seat swap!

I ordered some tan seat belts from LMC Truck, used the stock locations. Ill have to make an updated video on seatbelts for it

This looks awesome and I think I would try it but in the video it looks like there is a good size gap between the seat and the door. I know you said the seats were smaller than factory seat is but is that gap really noticeable? I don’t want to do all that work and be sitting on the edge of the seat just to be square with the steering wheel. Thanks for any feedback man good job

Id suggest marking your original bench seat with some masking tape, 1.5 inches off each side and that should give you a visual of where the seat will be in relation with the door panel, i dont notice it at all
