Seats for '85 Pickup

I used to have some universal racing seats installed in my old 86, but they did not fit correctly. I have googled the for it and none of the parts warehouses seem to have seats. It is the SR5 seat on the drivers side, the seat back detached from the side brackets so I am leaning to one side, very uncomfortable. I tried JBWeld but it fell 5 minutes into a drive. I dont have access to a welder but if I cant find a seat maybe Ill rent one =x

to the OP, you should just go to the junk yard and try and find a seat in good condition.

I picked up a set of '94 Acura Integra buckets for around $50. I was able to use two of the stock mounting holes up front, drilled and stacked washers on the inside rear mount. Used a MFH to bend some steel for the outside rear mount:

just had to cut off about the lower .25" or so of the stock bracket to allow it to sit flat on the floor.
