Seat Track Question

YY1 said

If you want six way power seats...get two driver's side units (pass side has cat) from an M body (5th Ave).

This may be one of those "best kept secrets" in our hobby.

The six way tracks from my parts car are a direct bolt on to the 72-74 buckets.

The studs to the floor pan my not be a direct fit, as I have not tried that part, but it really shouldn't matter if they are an inch or two off, as the factory used different locations for bench and bucket tracks.

Just an idea.

that sounds a lot easier than the route i tried a while back ....i used power seat tracks from a mid to late 80s lincoln town car bcoz they are pretty flat.....but that required some cutting and i had to weld studs on the bottom and tabs on the top for the seat bolts .....the driver side one came out a little tall which was good for me bcoz im 4'10" but after awhile i scrapped that and now i use only factory parts but i made some spacers out of square stock that fit under the original seat tracks and go through the studs to stay in place and that lifts the seat up enough to make driving comfortable .....bcoz buckets sit lower than a bench ....my car had a bench originally and when i swapped to buckets...WOW what a difference ...i could barely see over the dash when i first put the buckets in.
