I have a ‘75 duster the has been converted to a ‘73 interior, but the floor mounts for the back seat are in a different location and I can’t properly lock the seat in place. What are my options here?
Are you sure? Those seats are very hard to get in on the bottom. They wont catch on the latch on the floor?
Is the 73 seat the same as the 75 seat? I think it’s from another duster, but I’m not sure.
I can’t get them to even come close to the latch. Looks like the hooks on the seat are farther apart than the latch on the floor. The loops of the screws on the seat back don’t line up either.Are you sure? Those seats are very hard to get in on the bottom. They wont catch on the latch on the floor?
I’m not sure what they’re from. The width seems right. Maybe a dart or scamp? Would those be different?Those cut outs are a different shape than the Duster seat shown above. Are you sure that seat is from a Duster?
It may not be. The later cars had the rear corners of the seat bottom clearanced for the retractable seat belts that were added. I know my ‘74 has them, but I don’t know exactly when that type of retractor started. It may have been ‘74, so a ‘73 seat might be different from a ‘75.
@Alaskan_TA posted this, this is a ‘70 seat bottom compared to a ‘74. I’m not exactly sure when the change occurred or if it included the entire ‘73 model year. {ATTACH=full]1715492669[/ATTACH]
Hang on now.....
That photo was to show the difference between a regular seat frame & one for a Space Duster with the fold down rear seat.
Things can get whack when taken out of context.
