In my 1995 Ranger, I used seats from a Fox Mustang, and just bolted my current bottom tracks on to the seat.

I'm running seats from an 01 Explorer Sport, just like what's shown below. Only modifications I had to make were to :
  • Enlarge the holes for the mounting bolts since Rangers use a much larger bolt than some Explorers
  • Mount my seat belt pretensioners from the Ranger by drilling new holes for the bolts and using a nut for the opposite side since Explorer seat belts are very different.

02+ Explorer Sport
02+ Sport Trac

2003 Supercab. Direct bolt-in, with exception to the seat belts and having to enlarge the holes on the feet of the seat.
