How to fold down 60/40 bucket seat from 90s GMC Sierra
4 Attachment(s)
hey guys, a bit of an off question I bought two of these 40% low back bench seats from two different trucks at the local Pick N Pull and want to store them on a garage shelf for now, and one of them folded down (forward) perfectly flat (makes for easy storage) the other one refuses
now I know you pull the backs up ever so slightly and they lean forward allowing you to get to the extended part of the cab, but one folded down completely so now I am doubting myself thinking is that one just broken or do they actually do that, cause for the life of me I can't get the second one to lay down flat, I'm like 4 beers into it trying, ha ha |

turns out I'm not crazy, GM completely changed the design from 1990 to 91 !?!?!? |

I've been cussing my 1989 for seven years now because it only goes halfway down and then it flops right back when you turn around to pick something up and put it in the back :devil: |

I don't care about the driver side so much, just the passenger side.
So does the newer or older one lie flat? I will have to go play with it when it stops snowing. |

Just thought I'd mention the 60/40 seats are bench seats, hence the 60%/40% name. Buckets seats add up to less than 100%.
That's an interesting thing you discovered. It seems odd they changed between those years when '92 is when they completed the GMT400 line. This is a tidbit that would good to share in that message board for future reference |

40% + 40% < 100% |
Re: How to fold down 60/40 bucket seat from 90s GMC Sierra
Gotcha, and I did get that. I guess GM made a 60/40 bench and you made them 40/40 buckets. 40% + 40% = room for a console :cool:

here is a pick of the current seats in my '71 GMC, I hate them but they came with the truck, looks like they are out of an RV or something, they are so bulky and huge |

That empty space between the bucket seats is where you put your cooler full of beer ;)

I put things in the console. < That could be the complete conversation right there. I only put things in a console. I never take them back out :lol:. That space is handy for all sorts of things. Buckets AND console are not synonymous (Did I use that word correctly? :lol:).
Those seat you show look like furniture from a mobile home living room. Is there a pouch for the remote? :lol: |

But you're probably right, I've got ammo squirrelled away in lots of places including every vehicle. I'll probably never find it all before I die. Never put all your bullets in one basket. |

Gregski, what a nice surprise to find you haunting GMT400land. I'm very interested in a set of 60/40 or even better, high-back buckets in the same the color as those you found for your 71. They would be for my 82 Suburban. On the subject of ammo and things, surprisingly, in the debris I cleared out of my K20, there was nothing firearm-related. And then in cleaning out my C15 2WD, I found an intact cartridge for a 22. Which now I wear on a chain around my neck... Yeah, no. Not really. In keeping with the theme, it seems like there should be at least one 30 aught 6, or 12-gauge shell lurking somewhere in the K20, haha. Happy hunting fellas!

Yeah, that would be a fun trip to the emergency room. And even better when the detective from Sacramento PD visits and asks you how you received a gunshot wound. And you proceed to tell him this cockamamie story about working on your truck...

it's been a while but I just wanna show you guys what these end up looking like recovered
and here they are in my '54, I love 'em! the one on the left is actually a bit different with the head rest I am just using it for a stare and compare, the one on the right never had a head rest |
Re: How to fold down 60/40 bucket seat from 90s GMC Sierra
If I remember right 92 was the first year with the head rests. Those seat are really confortable and work in most any truck. I did not know about the folding difference thing.
