Since the driver seat in my 86 monty is long gone and the passenger seat is worn out,i think I will look for alternative buckets to install.
Whats some good choices? I need something that doesn't limit my leg room when I slide in because ima big boy and tall.
I am off to the pullapart tmrw so I was hoping for some ideas before I left.
Pics would be great to see also if you have any

I have several non-adjustable seat mounting frames you could have for shipping. Mighty Max/D-50, Starion/Conquest, Montero/Raider seats will work on these as long as you have some Monty/Raider seat tracks.

I had seats from an 85 300zx in my Trooper, it took some fab but they are FANTASTIC seats. I paid $25 for the pair.

Getting the Wheeling Fever
Put a set of these in my Montero:

Ebay Link to Seats

Used some 2" flat stock from the hardware store to make seat rail adaptors. They work good, look great, and were fairly cheap. My only problem is they lift you a bit higher than stock seats, so I need to find a way to cut the seat base down and remount. They work fine for now, though.

Rodeo seats are kind of uncomfortable.

The Z seats were wider than the factory seats in my Trooper.
