Well after taking a gander at my parts interchange manual it said you can't put bench seat tracks on a  bucket seat?!?!?

so i was like screw it some1 where on here somebody asked about bucket seats that were aftermarket and seat tracks and i saw they made mention of jegs so i hit up summit instead Wink and i picked up their universal seat  brackets that are adjustable!!!!   they should be here friday so this weekend BUCKE SEATS GO IN!

the seats guys look awesome! i'm very impressed so was my dad even though he did nto agree with the purchase but this morning he sure as hell was already running with some ideas on getting the seats mounted lol

Bench seat tracks mount in different holes, further out to the door than bucket mount holes. They are also taller, as the area they sit in the floor is lower than where the outer bucket track mounts. I'm pretty sure it won't bolt in without mods, or I would have done the same thing with mine.

i thought you knew it was'nt direct interchange, and you were tryin' to fab something.sorry.good luck with the new seats lookin forward to some pics.btw getting my seats perfect took alot of time,alot more than i thought it would.try using small wood blocks to shim the seats just right(check reach on shifter and rear view)also, make sure they both are mocked up and straight before drilling.

Let us know how it works out - I am in the same position - I am replacing my bench with two buckets but am not to the point of finding the seat tracks yet. 

Keep us informed on the results of the Summit universal tracks.

Thanks!
