Re: How tall are you??
6' 4"-300lbs. here. I seriously need to lose some weight. When my truck had the 92 bench seat, I actually had plenty of room and rode comfortably. My upholsterer talked me into going back with an original CST seat. He replaced all the foam with a stiffer foam. The seat is VERY comfortable, but it makes me ride kinda tall in the saddle.
 I need to take it back to him and have the seat mounts cut down about an inch. I've just learned to slouch down a little for now though. You could always just resort to the method below.

Re: How tall are you??
I'm not big at 6-1, 200 but my 72 is nowhere near as comfortable as newer vehicles. the big difference is the pedals are so close and high up. This sacrifice is worth it though to have the classic truck. I need to play around with raising the seat.
