Anyone seen a good writeup on seat swaps for a 93 era ranger?

I'm looking for something covering how to remove the old ones and leave the track for whatever I get next.

Also, any suggestions for a reg cap ranger donor? I was thinking Explorer or mustang, but anything with cumfy buckets would be good.

TIA

Vince

P.S. I have seen the "What fits" guide for seats, but they don't explain how to do the swap.

take the seats out, flip them over, and u will see a couple bolts that hold the seat to the seat rail, undo the bolts, pick our ur seats using the guide, and bolt them to the seat rail and throw them back in, if u have everything its about a 30 min job...

as usual it's easier than I thought it would be. I really can't wait to get into this project, I can't stand the split bench!

Thanks bud!

Got a set from a 99' explorer sport. I got the driver seat in last night and will get the pass one done today. I should have pics soon!

I am looking to add buckets as well, How much should I expect to pay for decent buckets from a ranger at a yard?

I paid $100 from a parts dealer for a set of Explorer seats. Great shape and power tracks that I can't use but gave to a bud with an explorer.


I found it easier to find explorer seats so I suggest you look on explorer forums for sale ads.

Good Luck!

Where is the "what fits" guide you speak of? I'd very much like to see this.
