Seats, belts, and rear passenger entry
1 Attachment(s)
So I’m considering a 66 burb as my next project to help with my growing family. One item of business I will have to tackle immediately is a rear seat and seatbelts.
The seats in my wife’s 05 Denali would be perfect, seatbelts are built into the seats and they appear to be the right size. The one part I’m stumped on is how to get passengers in the rear. The front seats from her Denali don’t flip forward easily which would make it almost impossible to buckle up a couple of kids. LT1 Burb had a similar setup, has anyone else used 00-06 yukon/tahoe front seats and developed a solution to get passengers in the back? I’ve attached a photo I stole from an LT1 Burb thread in 2010. |

so do you just not like original seats ? Not many options for the front as far as flipping forward to let passengers in.

Re: Seats, belts, and rear passenger entry
I have stock seats in my Sub, so I'm no help that way, but I can visualize fabrication of a simple base using hinges in front and sturdy latch with lever release for the rear. My 1995 Ford passenger van rear seats have quick release mounts with levers that could be good parts donors for the rear latch part. Do you weld?
I also noticed the tall seat with head rest might be an issue as far as flipping far enough forward. ? |

You should be able to use/modify the passenger side seat mount from a '69-'91 K5 Blazer.

The K5 Blazer passenger seat flipped forward for access to the rear seat.

Im going to try the middle row seat from a 2000 suburban for the front, slides forward and folds when you release it, 70/30 passenger side does slide fold, drivers folds flat
