First off, welcome!!!! Secondly, try to put a title or heading down when
posting a DML message, it helps to determine the subject of the post!! I
just swapped out the bench seat in my 93 Dakota, in favor for some nice high
back premium cloth bucket seats........I love them. I have no clue why I
waited so long to do this. I bought both seats and brackets for $50. The
stock bench seat takes about 2 minutes to take out and the buckets take
about 15 minutes to swap in. If you the full details of how I did
everything, just let me know. I also got a center console with the bucket
seats, but I am going to order a Tuffy powercoated steel lockable center
console. It costs about $165, but to me it is totally worth it, plus it is
alot larger than the 'factory console' Good Luck!! So you know about front
end work???.....like ball joints and tie rod ends????? Lets talk about
replacing them!!!! I am going to replace my upper and lowers ball joints,
and tie rods ends, which all have 120,500 miles on them.
