As for the seats they installed pretty easy, I probably should have reinforced them a little more but they are pretty solid right now. Im only 5'10 and have plenty of leg room but it will probably be kind of cramped for a taller person, you might look into a tilt column while your at it.

Thanks for the reply, my truck does have tilt and I am going to do the "push the steering column closer to the dash " thing as well. Just a thought on reinforcing the floor with those seats, in a severe frontal impact the seats will rip out of the floor with you attached to the seat by the seatbelt. I dont want to hijack the thread but I feel from experience (check the attached pics and I walked away from this) that this is an important topic. Seatbelts work as long as everything else works with them.
