the slider rails are 4 inches wider so i cut the mounts of the ranger seats and off the saturn seats and then took 2 peices of 2 inch flat stock and welded the ranger mounts to the stock and the stock to the saturn rails. i give it a 3 out of 10 for the trial and error i had to do btw the mount rivets r defiantly the hardest part

now those are some nice looking seats, but they do make the interior look a little smaller. How much bigger are they than the ranger seats?

Do you sit lower in those than the original seats? It looks like it. A lower seat for me would be nice since I'm pretty tall.

Wow those are nice seats.

I'll tell you what you do need, a Carpet Floor. Everyone knows the rubber floor sucks, and I'll tell you what. Just to help a fellow TRS'er out I'd be more then willing to swap my carpet floor for yours.


God I miss the rubber floor my old truck had.
