there was a 40-20-40 in Convincor's truck that i got from him and it had two lugnuts under each bolt hole for mounting and a long bolt. and the gas tank was pushe din to allow for the center peice.
dont know how many seats are similiar mounting

I did this about 5 years ago and havent had any issues with it. i took some crap from my friends over what i paid for the seat (500) but it was well worth it to me. took bout 30 min to install and trastically changed the interior, probably the smartest mod ive done. ill try to get some more pics up :thup:
Were you able to then just mount the center console on the inide bolt holes like the factory did? If so that is tomorrows project.

i found the seat in an Autotrader. and the center seat/console is mounted to the seat brackets, its one large frame so i just bolted down the corners where the blocks are.

Has anyone fabed in 40/20/40 seats from a newer type superduty? More specificly the extended cab type bench seats with the seatbealts intergrated in them. That is what I want to put in my truck so I can have shoulder harness type seatbelts, just curious if anyone has tried this.
