On the seats themselves, I removed about an inch from the rear of each mounting flange so I could tuck them as far back in the cab as possible (without sacrificing seat back angle). Then I welded the seats together to make the rest of the mockup and install a little easier. Totally unnecessary but didn’t hurt anything either; both sides still fold up & down independent of each other. From there, the seat got stuffed back in the cab so I could locate and add the flanges needed to pick up the gas tank bolt holes
