    You know, I thought it would be since I bought MasterCraft brackets, a MasterCraft chair and mastercraft seat slides.... But it went together awful and fought me every step of the way. That said its not the chairs fault at all it really just the slides and the floor brackets. Fits great now and is comfy, hopefully I never have to remove it from the brackets, as long as that's the case it'll be easy to take out and put back. If I did it again, I'd just machine a couple spacers and forget the sliders, I don't move my chair anyway.

    Cool cool, I'll bug you further if I end up going down that route. Need something comfy before my back deforms to accommodate the jacked up split bench seat:D
    Those look much better installed as well. I figured they would look better inside the truck, but yeah.

    Nope wanted a fixed back. The seat slides are super long it goes real far forward if I absolutely need to get back there. But I usually go through the passenger side anyway

    You gave me a great idea. Since I've got it working ideally now. I will take the chair out once more and weld a couple pieces of 1x1 square tube to make the two piece floor brackets into one. Literally that one bit of steel could solve the entire pain in the ass part.

    Celebrated it rolling out of the garage for the first time in two months. Also realized shortly after I left the garage half way down the street that I accidentally left this on the shock bolt nut from when I was torquing it.
