Power seat transmission / motor swap

[L92 OLDS]

Anybody do this swap? I've read that power seat transmissions in certain GM vehicles 88'-92' will swap into our G body seat tracks. The new design uses 3 motors and does not have the crappy nylon transmissions that either strip out, crack or snap the drive coupling. I saw a few Buick Century's in the yard today with the newer 3 motor set up and the rail spacing looked the same.

I've never heard of this, but I'd be interested to learn more. I swapped in a power driver's seat track from an '82 Regal into my '84 Monte, but the Regal seat track came from a car that had a split bench seat, not buckets, and I've since found out that there are differences between the split bench and bucket seat tracks. I had to fabricate a couple of adapter brackets to mate the Monte bucket seat onto the Regal seat track, and I can't get enough adjustment out of the Regal seat track to get the seat low enough or far enough back to be comfortable. Looking forward to learning more about this swap.

87 up had multi motor set up . I used a 89 Trans seat motor set and wiring . Was not a bad mod.
