Re: My 1962 C10 Build Thread "Grandpa's Truck "

Got my 98-01 Dodge Ram seats installed, wanted to get all the fab work done before I paint the inside of the cab, these seats were a huge pain in the ass to get to fit right, I cut down the seat risers, took 2 1/4 from the front and 1 1/4 from the rear to bring the seats down to the stock 62 chevy seat height, had to modify all 4 seat risers and shorten one by 2 1/2 inches and fab a new bracket for the center pull out cupholder, I made adaptor brackets for the 4 outer attachmets that use the stock seat holes and drilled 4 new ones for the center attachments, welded plates to the floor underside with studs ....alot of work to get to look right but hell...I got a good deal on the seat so it was worth the work I guess

its very comfortable and planty of room with the stock fuel tank installed still, I set it up at the same height and posotion as the stock seat, the lower seat is a bit longer but gives added support
