Explorer 2nd row seats..

http://kansascity.craigslist.org/pts/1046767208.html

Do you guys think they will fit in an 03 ranger? i don't have the money for them right now but if they are still for sale in late march i will probably snag them.

Whata you think?

They look nice, but I dont think they would fit unless you can switch the mounts on them.

I don't think they will fit, its a mid sized truck, a ranger is a mini size, widths are different. And you have to contend with fabbing up brackets and shiz

Why not look for the front seats out of an exploder?I think it is 98 and lower (???) that bolt in.

Just wire them up.

They are form an 08, I know for sure that they will not fit, they are too wide. If you are getting seats from an exploder, you have to get them from one before they changed to the wider body style. Just search explorer seat swap, or something like that. And you can for sure pick up some front seats for about that.

I think the track bolts in.

When I swap some in, I am just going to wire it into the same circuit as the radio/door locks so I can use it when the truck is off.

Those seats look super uncomfortable. That's why they're rear seats. Look how flat and unbolstered they are. You'll be falling out of your seat every time you go around a corner if you put those in your truck.

Sounds like a great plan! Ordering a set now!

I do feel bad that she has to sit on the uncomfortable 60/40 middle seat, but I like her being close

Same here lol. I just tell her to deal with it. Mine has a little Geo Metro, that thing is a pain in the *** for me to squeeze in, so it goes both ways.

And sometimes closer is better.
