1990 captains chairs in a 1968?

[takehikes]

Ran across some 1990 captains chairs and console from a 1990 F250 Supercab that I can get pretty cheap. I was wondering how much its going to take to get them in to my 1968 F100. Any one know? He has the back seat too and wondered if it would work for a front seat in mine if the captains don't? Thanks.

Can't tell you about the captain's chairs, but I used the rear bench seat from a 1989 F350 crew cab in my bump. Just switched the runners over and it fits perfectly. Rear benches are the same as far as I could tell, and they're usually not as beat up.

Gonna be a tight fit to the steering wheel.

I installed a set of captains chairs and center console out of a 1994 F-150 in my 1970 4x4, but the captains chair mounts for the 1987-1991 should be similar to the 1992-1997, possibly the same. They were far from a direct fit. If you choose to use the captains chair mounts you will have to cut up the mount brackets, fit them to the floor and re weld, I think I had to modify all four mounts on each seat if I remember correctly. The inner rear mounts need to be chopped as low as you can get them, then the webbing on the inner track needs to be clearanced for the floor. I think the outer rear mounts just needed a slight tweak to make them sit flat on floor. The outer front mounts i believe needed a relief cut and then bent down a hair more to match the floor then re welded. I think the inner fronts needed to be cut off, turned down, and angled slightly to match up with the angle of the transmission tunnel/floor pan corner. The hard part is lining up the driver seat with the steering wheel where you want it while mocking up the mounts at the same time meanwhile keeping the seat level. You are somewhat limited to having it slightly off set from the steering wheel unless you really want to hug the door. Once the mounts are done you will have to drill some new holes in the floor, none of the factory holes were close. When it stops raining I'll run out and double check what all I changed.
Soon I will be installing a bench seat out of a 92-94 in the front of my 1970 crew cab, I'm going to try and install that seat on to the 1970 seat track, but i haven't looked to see how much work it will take yet. If you use the seat mounts that are on the newer bench you will still have to do some modifications, but probably not as much as the captains chairs.

I think I remember reading somewhere that someone bolted captains chairs on to the factory bench seat tracks, but you were left with both seats being connected and the seat frame running through the gap between the seats.
