I am finalizing the essentials on my work commuter Ranger. Other than some new paint on the hood and front fenders, and some exhaust work, it is almost done. One of my biggest gripes, though, is the driver's seat. It is all broken down (before I got it), and little chunks of foam regularly fall out from under. Spending 60+ miles in it a day (on work days), it tends to get a bit uncomfortable.
I have been searching for replacement foam for the 60/40 seats, and I have determined it is not a part you can just purchase. The upholstery is in good shape, its just the foam (or possibly the springs have broken loose?) that is the problem.
So, I have been wondering if I could find some nice used seats, from something newer than my '95, and still be a direct bolt in? What seats are compatible? Explorer seats work? What I would really like is a couple nice '02 Explorer seats and a center console. Our '02 Explorer has twice as many miles as the Ranger, but the seats are firm, comfortable, and like new. Not sure if something like that would fit, though.
Any ideas?
