K5 Seats
 
2 Attachment(s)
Has anyone installed buckets seats out of late 80's K5? I have found a deal on a complete set and was wondering how they fit. I can not find the correct ones around where I live. It has 70's style in it now what it looks like correct seat frames. The pics are what is in it now.

So those pics are of your blazer and what's currently in it??

I have 80s blazer seats in mine...front buckets and rear bench and all seem to fit fine. I haven't taken the front carpet up yet to see if the holes match up though. I will be next weekend though and could let you know then. Somebody else may have done this swap and know off hand, mine was like this when I got it.

When I bought my Blazer the passenger seat in it was from a 73-up Blazer. It hit the windshield when it was tilted forward.

I believe the Blazer seats from 1973 till 1976 are virtually the same as the first generation seats. The tracks are different, but the seats are the same. I think the high back buckets started in about 1977.

When I got my 72 it had high back buckets from a 73+ (maybe 77+ like jlmerie mentioned) and I second the hitting of the windshield when the passenger is tilted forward. The PO had bolted the original 72 brackets to the bottom of the 73+ seats, I don't recall the seat frames being drilled out or anything, maybe it all bolted right up???
