I really like the older style of seats and was wondering how hard it is to swap an 85 bench seat in to 98 with 60/40. thanks

all depends on the mounting holes in the floor, the way the floor in the cab is made and the brackets on the seats. im sure you could come up with something. i got seats out of a 2002 ranger and put them in my 93. me n my dad had to fabricate brackets for them. (pieces of square stock) and drill new holes in the floor and used grade 8 bolts. and just filled the holes in from the stock seats. hope this helps. let me know

should be able to use your original sliders/brackets and put the seats on top of those, I did a mustang seat swap with the ranger rails, but I went form 89 ranger seats to fox body 90 mustang seats. goodluck
