Rear Seat Brackets

Hello all, New guy here. I just bought a 71 Jimmy CST and the Brackets to hold the rear seat are missing. Any ideas where I could get a set. I bought some off the Web and they dont appear to be the correct brackets. At least from looking at pictures from other trucks.

Re: Rear Seat Brackets

First off… Welcome to the board and congrats on the new jimmy. You should post some pics!

There are 4 bolts in the rear of the seat and 2 bolts / 2 brackets in the front.

Attached are a few pics of the brackets.

Re: Rear Seat Brackets

Guess im not sure how those bolt up. All the pictures im finding they look much taller. I bought those brackets that you have the picture of. Here is a pic of the truck.. I got a great deal on I dont think he knew what it was worth and only rust I can find is drivers rocker panel.

Re: Rear Seat Brackets

Nice truck! The bracket just lays on top of the front bar and you bolt it down. Is your rear seat original?

Re: Rear Seat Brackets

So those mount in the Front? What about the rear of the seat? I think its the factory seat.i guess Im not really sure. I thought I was worth the 5000 I spent.
Only had to drive 1800 miles to get it lol

Re: Rear Seat Brackets

Definetly worth it. Yes the brackets hold down the front bar. 4 bolts hold down the rear of the seat.

Re: Rear Seat Brackets

Do you have the two holes in the floor for the front brackets? I don't see them in the picture but it's hard to tell

Re: Rear Seat Brackets

isnt any brackets or tubes on the bottom of the seat currently just a couple hinge brackets in the front of the seat. I will try to get some pictures of the bottom and maybe you can tell me what Im all missing. Im a old mopar guy but wanted a old jimmy for years. This one is great shape just needs some love and some missing seat parts. The front passenger seat seems wierd to not sure if someone tried to mod it and make it work or not. Will send pics of that as well. Thanks a ton for your help

Re: Rear Seat Brackets

Hinge bracket? Probably a square body rear seat
