Oh, btw I had to bend the arm that holds the pin. As it came, the pin wouldn't engage/hold. Maybe it got tweeked in shipping. Quick work with a large C wrench and all was good. Just something to look out for... It's seems kinda wonky but once it's all bolted in and the seats on it all...

With the seat mount , extra shims and shipping it's north of $700. It's more of a want cause IMO it's over priced for what it is...

Can't take all the credit. Some years ago there was a post by someone else who had used the seats. IMO they are a really good fit and don't look crazy in the bronco.

I looked into that over the past year and wasn't having any luck finding one either.

Ya, they are reasonably comfortable. easy to install and mount really low to the floor so I can see out the windshield.

I could have still moved the seat forward a couple more inches for the picture. It was set with the seat trac all the way back. The factory hinge has no way to lock the seat down without the rear latch. I definitely had moments where I thinking was it worth it.

That's no lie....

Just installed Duffs new seat mount. It's pretty straight forward install. Instructions say you may need extra shims under the leg portion of the mount. It comes with just one in the box.. I had to order 3 more and I'm still slightly low but not noticeable when u sit in the seat. There...

https://classicbroncos.com/forums/threads/never-ending-12-yr-build.322854/ Take a look here, I've got a pic of the ZF shifter from JB. Also, farther down the page I go into some detail about the set up

Definitely, a bonus having them so close.

Yes, I'm using the JB shifter for the transfer case. You have to clock the transfer case one hole higher to clear the ZF crossmember. It's been awhile but I recall having to modify the bolt holes for the shifter bracket. There is a post on here showing how its done. The transfer case sits...

My bronco has basically been hiding out in my shop for years. I started a frame off in 2012 and worked on it as money allowed. I purchased it from the original owner in 1986. It had 80k at the time. It's a 72 Sport Explorer and was brown at the time. In my 30's I painted it chevy red...

Got my old fiberglass top repaired , painted and installed.

Looking at the YJ bracket. Off the top of my head why couldn't you just get two of them. Borrow the flat surface mounting bracket from #2 and mount it in place of the curved bracket on #1. That way all four bolts mount flat to the floor.

Yes its color has never changed. I knew the odds were low of finding the color.
