Full bench seat swap

Just wondering if there are any full bench seats I could swap into my 99 ranger? It's a single cab

I've read that they came out in the fleet Rangers,like delivery trucks for auto parts or flowers.I looked for several years and could not locate a good one.I think cash for clunkers, took care of a lot of cool stuff.Someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Happy Hunting!

And you now have ?

I'm thinking the 60-40 Seat, this doesn't work as an almost bench ?

Welcome to the forum

As said no, there were no full bench seats, not even sure about the Fleet models, but it would make since for them to have cheaper seats

60/40 bench was what was available

I would hit wrecking yards with measuring tape and look at s-10s or similar vehicles for correct width bench seats, even mini-van rear seats might work
Then you will have to figure a way to bolt the Ranger seat brackets to the bench seat

Also in 1999 the seat belts will have sensors so you need to keep those in place for use on the bench seats

Thanks Ron, about time i joined lol
I currently have the 60/40 bench, but I personally love the look of an old full bench. I've seen a couple on YouTube with full benches, but they're fully built as well.
Thanks for letting me know about the seatbelts, def gonna have to keep them

I dont mind waiting a bit for this dont wanna rush it. Just did a whole bunch of new parts
