Availablity of front seats

I am currently trying to locate new front seats for my 88 Ford Bronco II. I would like the new seats to be taller to provide additional head and neck support. I am looking for something that would bolt right in and fit. Thanks and happy holidays...Robert

Re: Availablity of front seats

I replaced my broken BII seats with a set a friend gave me from a Camaro! (Talk about TALL!) Really, you can visit a scrapyard, find something you like, and just bolt your brackets to them. If so inclined.]

No matter what seats you replace with, you're going to have to get your brackets under them. The BII (and Bronco) have really wierd floor patterns, so be prepared to fight those 10mm bolts that hold the seat to the bracket. (By comparison, the 12mm bolts holding the brackets to the floor are easy!) happy hunting.

You too! (Mine is busy so far!)

I have a set from my Big Bronco. They're red. Not the tall(est) ones, but they're bigger than the BII's stockers...if inclined. (They're the one-armrest type.)
