Not ready to quit my day job...

I did learn a little about the differences in the seat frames.

The seat bottom frames seem to be the same, but the seat back frames for a non-tilt Crew Cab front are different than a tilt style standard cab or rear Crew Cab frame.

Also the seat floor brackets for the Crew Cab front are different than the standard cab’s brackets. I was planning on taking some photos of the two next to each other but I got all excited and wanted to stuff the new seat in the truck

This photo is not the best so I tried to highlight the differences. This is the standard cab’s (or rear Crew Cab’s) seat back frame with the inertia latches tab.

The non-tilt seat back frame does not have the latching tab (poorly highlighted in yellow) and would have an extra hole in the arched frame arm (poorly drawn red circle). I could easily make this seat a non-tilt by adding a couple of screws but I don’t really see it as a problem.

I still need to clean, prep and paint the plastic pieces and seat belts. Fix the dash and then tackle the door panels.
