I wouldnt think so but it depends on how much room you have between the seats.

I'm outta the loop. What did he do exactly?

I mean I see he added the Explorer center console but is that it? Whats this about sewing the seats?

I just want to add Explorer Leather Seats to my truck, no center console or anything, I already have the buckets anyway...

I had the 60/40 bench seat so I had to cut the middle seat out and sew the fabric on the drivers seat in order to put the explorer console in.

What did you use to cut the seat?


I've got an angle grinder with a cutting wheel, probably going to do mine Wednesday.

Brendan, the seat doesn't go very far behind the seat at all, I think maybe an inch or two past where I have my seat positioned.

David, I used a saws all to cut my seat, if you use one it will be best if you get somebody to help you hold the seat down otherwise it can get kinda interesting. Oh I used a hack saw in some places too.

Be careful with the foam! I think I may have cut mine a little to muchand I am now getting a crease in my seat, no biggie though. It isnt to bad and it is still comfy.

I have a question, when did Ford put bucket seats in the Ranger's? I thought all Ranger's had the 60/40 split bench seat. People keep mentioning they have buckets already and the only buckets I can think of are the Explorer one's.

I dont know the specific years but I have seen some really nice new ones, black leather buckets and a nice black console from between the seats to the dash. They look sweet.
