A friend of mine had one with buckets & console. It had a 4.3 so Id say early 90s S10.

Yes, theyll fit, I am pretty sure you'll need to drill holes for the inside tracks, but be sure to reinforce the floor where you bolt the seats too, at least use big fender washers on the bottom side.

yea they should swap over, the outside bolts will line up from the bench but i too am pretty sure you will need to drill the inside bolt holes. I just swaped a pickup bench into my blazer that had buckets and it took maybe 15 minutes total

I did this in my 87 S-10. The outer seat mounts bolt to the bench seeat studs. The only problem I found is the seats are closer toghether that way and a factory console wont fit.

i dont see how that is possible. My blazer was only offered with buckets, and i recently took them out, and a stock s10 bench seat bolted right in and i have the inside track studs just sticking up under the seat. The stock console was a very tight fit, mine had rub marks in it from the seat belt covers digging into it. Espeically once your seats flatten down some and push out on the edges, as all older seats do, it makes it an even tighter fit.
