Found Front Seat brackets for 1991 blazer, I believe 87 up?

Just like the title says...

Flip and slide style? How good of condition do you need? Do you need the slide actuators by themselves or assumed they are included?

 

[folkenheath]

Yes, I was going to use the seat brackets from the 85 to bolt some other seats in the 91, and they are completely different, brackets won't work.

The 85 pass seat pivots up and forward with a rear latch in the floor, the 91 just bolt down in 4 corners and they must fold and slide.

Is the slide mechanism separate from the fold mechanism or is it linked together? I don't have a set to compare, the current front seats are a 40/60 bench out of a newer ride of unknown origin, and access to the rear is not the best. They simply drilled new holes I will have to plug.

I could blast and paint them if needed.

The later model Blazer passenger seat has dual slides on it. One is for position of the seat and the other is for the slide forward feature. Otherwise, the driver and passenger bases are similar.

I can get some pictures soon-ish, but it's a holiday/ no electricity/ feet of snow, so no promises.

No electricity?

That's fine, later is fine.

My plan is, to remove this split bench seat, and bolt in some different buckets. I will fab an adaptor to connect the buckets to the factory floor mount/sliders if needed.

Any luck on that Luke? Or did you get buried even worse in snow?

Sorry, I've been traveling and had a lot of company. I think this is the DS.







Not pristine, but they would probably clean up OK.

 

[Blue85]

This is a PS base with slides. It's missing the spring that goes between the 2 sides.

 

[Blue85]

Here's the spring on one in service.



I think it's this. Otherwise, you'd have to get creative.

Thanks Luke, I sent a PM

Do you have the late model Blazer seats? The PS seat has a cable connected to it's hinge, so when you flip the seat back forward, it releases the slide and springs bring the seat forward (for access to the back seat). If you don't have that factory hinge, you'll need something else to actuate this. The seat "position" is independent, operated by the large lever you see.

I do not, the factory seats were removed by a previous owner. I removed the early ~2000 split bench, and I will be installing different buckets in front, I plan to make an adaptor to the factory brackets as needed.

Thank you Luke, appreciate it.
