Three questions need to be answered here.Hi everyone! I'm new here so I'm not sure how everything works. I'm working on an '87 Ranger XLT Zimmer Package and I'm trying to replace the seat brackets as the ones on it currently have rusted out and are no longer bolted to the floor. Does anyone have any suggestions on what brackets I could use as a replacement? Thanks for your help in advance!
1) Is it a regular cab or extended cab?
2) If it's a regular cab, is it bench seat, split bench seat, or bucket seats?
3) If the seat brackets are that rusted, what does the floor pan look like? If those are that far gone is there still anything to bolt them to?
Regular cab and extended cab used different brackets. Same for bench seats and bucket seats. The DS bench seat bracket/slider in my 85 is/was rusted beyond use, turns out that the floor pan on that side is just as bad. Actually I discovered the bad floor pan first, then that the track and slider were rusted up so bad.
Oh, when you have time make a thread with pictures and info about your Zimmer. There aren't a lot of those out there and it would be nice to document another one. There's a subforum just for showing off rare Rangers & BIIs.
