The bigger cushion seems like it would be better in the back. Getting the rear passengers higher up in the air etc to see out.

Were the factory full width bench seats different thicknesses from front to rear?
Yes they are - but only by an inch or less - we just put my nearly flawless middle seat in a friends - new to him - 68 / 72 GMC stepside - we fabbed up the plates needed from a piece of 1/2" aluminum plate and put the factory slides right on it - sweet fit
