The bucket seats in our Xtra cab are out of a Dodge Minivan, they have armrests built in. They were too high when we got the truck but I've managed to redo the brackets and make them work. They even kinda match the back seat.

Yeah a good set of SR5 seats that match your existing interior color are usually hard to find. I'm still looking for a grey set to stick in the 4runner. If you can swing it get the SR5 seats that have the adjustable sides. Kind of like a jump seat. I have them in my truck (well the drivers side anyway) and it's really comfortable off road since it helps keep me from moving around too much.

Heck even if you could find some that are the wrong color you could get them redone.


Luck!

I used a pair from a late 80's Celica AllTrac - I still have the original buckets for sale, but I'd really rather not ship them

I have an 86 xtra cab, and I'm not sure what kind of back seat should have been there...anyone know if they had jump seats or a full bench? I bought it with nothing back there, but one fixed bracket on the drivers seat.

There isn't a seat for the extra cab trucks. There is a shelf mounted back there from the factory that you can store stuff on/under but that's about it.

Oh cool, so I wasn't wrong when my dad said I should have seats back there... it's nice to be right with him once in a while haha. As for the shelf, I do believe my sub box took that space right up. Two 12's need a lot of room lol

Haha! I just got mine in today, the plastic sure does rattle in back. The glass vibrates, but I could use some new windows anyways. Where did you put the 6x9's? Unless I cut out the steel right under the windows, and I found it easier to just cut the holes in my door panels for 6" speakers...Just had to remove the door stop.
