    Depends on weather or not you have the factory seat tracks. If you have those then virtually any seats will work.

    yeah, most Ford bucket seats have had the same bolt pattern for years, but getting the bucket seat tracks and the goofy risers that go with them is the tough part.

    This is a pic of LDO tracks ...

    Note that each track is different depending on if there is a release lever and/or risers, which go on the inboard tracks.

    LDOs will put buckets in, and they will be right on the floor (great if you are tall ...). The regular highback tracks raise the seat another 2 inches or so.
