Fab me some bucket seat nut-plates? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I would like to know if someone has specs or has made a pair of the nut-paltes for buckets. Im ready to install my factory bucket seats and need a pair for the inside bracket mounts.

Ideally I would like to have someone make me a pair or find something factory.

I'd like to see a pic or two of what you want.

There is a boardmember in Cal. that made some for boardmember 55454, but the front crossbrace would be difficult to reproduce. You can PM 55454 and ask him who it was, or buy a used set. I have a set that will soon be for sale as soon as I can cut it out if you are interested.

I believe that when I was up at Teeitups last weekend he had a front cross brace that he had just removed from a blazer. I used one of those when I installed my buckets and it sure makes it easy as well as look stock. You might send him a PM and see if he still has it.

Thanks, just fired him a PM.

Here are a couple of pics. Cabs without factory buckets don't have the crossbrace and nutplates.

boraxman · 03-10-2006, 04:35 PM

Is the crossbrace bolt in or welded?

HuggerCST · 03-10-2006, 04:56 PM

The crossbrace and brackets/nutplates are all welded in.
