I am trying to install the bucket seats in my 72 dart. First question is are these a body tracks? Next question are they attached to the seat in the right direction, this is the passenger side seat. Does the narrow end go towards the front or rear.

I believe your tracks are in backwards, should be thicker to thinner front to back respectively. Here are mine when I had them apart looks like the correct tracks. And I also attached photos of them in the car for perspective. Hope this helps!

Can you tell me what the height measurement is for those tracks?
 
I just have the passenger side out now but here they are. The release arm side is 4 inches on the front end and 3 inches on the rear end. The inside track is 3.5 inches on the front end and 2 inches on the rear end. These measurements are from the top of the sliders [where they bolt to the seat frame)to the bottom of the floor mounting base. I hope this helps.
 
I was messsing around with my seats this weekend trying to figure it out too. In addition to the adjuster being on the "outside", when the adjuster is released the seat will move all the way forward. Still wondering if I have the right tracks because the adjuster appears closer to the hinge on the drivers side, where as the adjuster on the passenger side appears to be in the middle. Best I can tell is that I have late 73+ tracks as the inners don't latch, and the buckets I believe from a 67 B body.
