Yes, assuming you have a 60/40 or bucket seats now, put them on your current seat tracks

+1 what Scott says.

My '90 had 60/40 split bench and I put buckets in from a 98 Explorer, just needed to use my old seat tracks and put them on my Explorer seats.

They fit, but you have to take the old seats out first, otherwise there isn't enough room.

This is a very good point adsm08. If the OP is set on keeping the old seats I suggest putting the Explorer seats in the box, or on the roof if the box is already full of seats from other cars.

They do fit nicely in the bed though. When I brought my Ex seats an console home I set them in the bed of the S10 (same width) as if they were still in a vehicle. Perfect fit. Coulda sat two people back there and given them a cup holder.

closer inspection shows the drivers seat cushion is pretty broken down. a buddy turned me on to some seats from an f250 I think i`ll check those out this morning and see if i can do something with them.

Still bucket seats, though, right? Meaning only seats two people? It would probably be next to impossible to fit a three person F250 seat set in a Ranger. Even with buckets you might find it difficult to fit a console (if you were inclinded to do so) between them since they are designed for a vehicle that is much wider.

Here is a nice set of universals. Look pretty comfy for as cheap as they are. I've seen them for like $20 a pair new.

Judging by the emblem I think I see on the steering wheel, I think they might be factory. :icon_thumby:

Nah, those aren't factory. I saw a bunch outside Tractor Supply the other day.
