Seat help on 87 K5

[Chowda]

I took the seats out of my blazer and springs that keep tension on the back of the seat fell off. Can someone take a couple pictures of theirs and post them so I can see where these springs go? Thank you

@the_blaze is working on swapping seats in his '88. You could look and see if his are the same style as yours. (fold and slide) I believe that he will also be interested to see what you have in your '87.

Can you show me the bolt pattern/brackets for how your seats mount? When I get mine back I can take pics for you. (Mines an 88)

I’ll take some pics and post for him.

Blaze,

Here are some pics of my passenger seat. This seat is a “fold and slide”

The first pic is a front “floor” view so you can see the 4 bolts the mount the bracket to the floor.

Second pic is a front pic so you see where the front of the seat mounts to the bracket.

3rd pic is where the back of seat mounts to the base/bracket.

4th/last pic is a side view from door looking at passenger seat. The bottom of the plastic trim on the left and right side you will see a bulge in trim, that is where there are two bolts that bold the side of seat to the base/bracket.

If you need any other pics let me know.

Bingo. So 87 was the first year of this style. I'm working with corbeau to update their brackets to fit our trucks. The drivers side is actually just a hair wider 10 1/2" vs 9 3/4"

Interesting. I was not aware. I wish the out side wasn’t so susceptible to rusting.

Let me know if u need anything else.
