But I'm going to use it in my suburban when it's ready, then I can move it back further. The only thing is they have integrated seat belts so you need to reinforce the floor so the bolts don't pull through. I welded 1/8" steel plate under the cab where I bolted the seats in. The cupholder in front just cleared my Hurst ratchet shifter. I have to take the shift knob off when the car seat is installed or I can't get it into drive.
No, just one mine, 50 miles away on the other side of Pikes Peak. I have seen the 1999+ truck seats with the integrated seats in 67-72s, but I want to use the earlier 95-98 seats... Hopefully.

Got the block done!
