I would like to switch out my 60/40 bench seats out for a set of buckets. I have already got the bucket seats out of a Monte Carlo SS and I just figured that they would be a direct bolt in since the 60/40's had 2 tracks for each side. After trying to fit the passenger side bucket to its set of tracks I noticed the tracks bolt holes were wider than the buckets. I measured the the tracks bolt holes which are 14-1/2" from side to side where as the buckets bolt holes measure 13-1/2" but they do measure the same if you measure them from the front holes to the back bolt holes which is exactly 14". So from the front to back they will fit just fine but there about 1" too wide to fit one another.
Anybody ever try to swap these out before? Maybe encounter this exact same thing?
Not sure what I have to do to get them to fit, maybe modify the brackets and try to bring the outer rail in 1" to make it fit or do the bucket seat tracks bolt in differently or maybe made differently?
Thoughts,suggestions.....
Thanks
Shawn
