The bench seat in our 90 B is getting mashed down on the drivers side. Is there a relatively simple way to build the cushion back up to normal? Alternately, what bucket seats from other vehicles are an easy retrofit? I have access to junkyards locally and can get seats from many other vehicles. Finding decent buckets or a bench from a B2200 will be nearly impossible probably. Thats why we want to consider retrofit from other vehicles that would likely be more available.

Thanks

 

Have you obtained quotes to re-do the seat from local upholsterers??

I had my bucket seats in my '88 B2200 re-done back in the 1990s.

 

I have not obtained quotes for re-do. There is a shop nearby but I'm sure the quote would be high. Maybe I'll stop in and see. I'll report back if I do

 

I had my 1989 B2200 regular cab truck bench seat reupholstered last year and I have enjoyed it! Made all of the difference for sure. Others have complimented me on how nice it looks when they see it now.

Before:

Not a great picture........but I had to keep a cushion on the driver's side.......

On all three of my past owned Mazda pickups which all came with bench. One got a set of Pinto Buckets, one 70s Camaro high back buckets and my very upgraded. B2000 got a set of Carbeau’s.
They all took a little work making the rail fit, a little wood working but easy to do. Sorry the only easily these days to obtain is the Cerbeau’s.
