Die seat die!

Not a "perfect" fit but definitely better than the worn out vinyl.


Old...

New...

That doesn't look bad at all...nice fit for a generic fit cover. Can't tell at all the seat was once a 60/40 !
Nice job.

Eh I like it but I give it a year, maybe two before it starts falling apart. It's fairly thin material on the back (what do you expect for $25 bucks) so I'm already looking for a sturdier replacement but I think it looks good for now while it lasts.

The wrinkles are already starting to go away so its actually starting to look better the more it stretches out. I may go steal some of that spray on wrinkle release stuff for laundry from my mom to see if that helps smooth it out more.

Looks good.

Since I got the seat out, I always wanted to mount a fire extinguisher in the cab. Anyone know of any fire extinguisher mounting brackets that fit in front of the seat on the existing seat mounting bolts? I've seen them for mustangs but never rangers.

I want something like this... but it can't mount to the tracks, has to bolt to the floor bolts.

Wouldn’t a chowdah can dispenser be a better option?

Yes but the problem is when the chowdah spills on the electronics and causes a fire!

Look up this from H3R Performance
Universal Fire Extinguisher Seat Mount
SM-01BK
Expensive, but may give you ideas to fab one up.

Today I'm suiting up to brave the vast frozen wastelands of New Jersey in search of a console. If I don't make it back alive, someone feed the goat!

Who should we feed him to?


Maybe it would just be better if you come back alive.

Anyway seats back in!

And I found the source of the smell that wont go away! Missed some chowdah that was hiding under the center seat...

Took it for a ride, it is soooooooooo much more comfortable with the lumbar and head support. Without the vinyl I don't seem to slide around as much either so thats a nice bonus.

Still need to give the interior a bath, add the console, and add a butt pad. The console should hide the tiny bit of material the seat covers don't cover down by the seat belts.

New steering wheel cover that matches the seat covers coming tomorrow.

All that food on the floor...do not get rid of it....
That's what we used to call "field rations". Good for emergency food when in trouble.
The 2 french fries are an added treat !

 

[Dirtman]

Those aren't french fries...

During the summer ill park my truck out back and leave the doors open. The chickens hop in and clean up all the crumbs and eat all the bugs.
