How wide is a K5 Bench seat?

[Kota4bye]

Help me out here. I'm in Iraq, and my truck isn't even at home for the accountant to measure for me.

So let's say I want to order a new bench seat, what are your recommendations, and how wide.

My girls are five if you have a suggestion size wise.

TIA

I saw this thread this morning and assumed somebody....Would actually chime in. Now, seeing it flatline as it is, I will respond. Sorry for my delay.

Tomorrow morning, in about 9 hours, I will run out to my storage shed, where my bench rests, and grab the measurements for you.

Unfortunately, this is all I have in response - But it will at least get you on the web looking at possible replacements until (perhaps) someone does reply with further insight and/or experience of different benches.


Thank you for your service to the US of A - Keep your head down and come home safe.

A '79 rear seat measures roughly 48 inches across the bottom cushion, and 58 inches wide at the arm rests (they are above the wheel wells).

Cool, I was guessing 46-47, thanks.

My '88 looks to be right at or a tad under 48 inches across the cushions. I removed the arm rests so I can't get a measurement there. Hope that helps!

Thats what I came up with also - 48" + 10" for arm rests.

Additionally, you have 65.25" across the bed, and 50" between the wells.


Good luck
