Re: Utility bucket to Sport bucket conversion

The seat mounting brackets (the assembly that connects the seat to the Blazer floor) are not interchangeable from the utility buckets to the sport buckets. If you are converting from utility to sport buckets, you may or may not have the underfloor reinforcements (which I often referred to as brackets or bracketry in this thread as well)... which you can either make or can be found for sale here on the board.

I see people on this board do amazing things everyday...so the question of whether utility bucket mounting brackets can be configured to fit sport buckets is probably moot, if you want to make something work bad enough--you probably can.

If you want sport buckets, but don't have the correct Blazer mounting brackets for them...my advice would be to follow the classifieds closely as they often come up for sale.

Best of luck regardless of whether you're looking for parts or making parts (or both).
