I believe your answer is YES. maybe.....I mostly say this because i believe in '04 they changed the floor a little bit....might have been '06.


Buy them...and if they don't bolt it, just carry your current seat tracks over to the new seats.....they'll work.

yes. some are bolt in...some are riveted in. If it's riveted, just drill them out, and put in grade 8 bolts w/ nylock nuts.

But i am 75% sure they will bolt in. If it's local.....take your tool with ya and test fit them.

no...im talking how the seat tracks mount to the seat frame. Not how the seats bolt to the floor.

The seat bases are also different I tried to put these seats out of a regular cab into a extended cab 99 truck. The seats are made different underneath so the bases won't interchange. You would probably have to get bases for the newer style seats for an extended cab.
