    Does anyone have or know of someone with a second gen taco with factory front bench seat?

    I at least want to sit in one and may be willing to trade my buckets and console bits, I just can't get comfortable in the seat.

    I am 99% positive 2nd gens do not have bench seats. Maybe the very basic single cab models perhaps do but other then that I don't think any do.

    All regular cabs had benches.

    You'll definitely find someone wanting to trade but I don't know if it's a direct bolt in.

    You should make a thread in the marketplace section with a "WTT: bucket seats for bench seat" or similar thread title.

    No way am I paying round trip shipping to the lower 48... though if I sit in one and like it I might pay one way from an outside salvage yard.

    Are you near squarebanks? I'll likely be down to A town around the holidays, I have one kid at UAA.
    Thanks.

    I have missed two or more days of work three times since I bought the truck in march.

    I flipped the headrest 180 once I figured out where my neck pain was coming from, I got 3 inches of memory foam on the seat pad that is helping my hip pain a bunch- but now the lumbar support is at the wrong height.

    I expect ten to fifteen years out of the taco, but my old furd ringer fit me like a glove. If I can raise the taco seat 2 inches and sit an inch or two closer to the tunnel I won't have to move the pedals.

    Anyone think they could do the part of this next to the cab? At least bend it so it is slightly larger than the cab footprint?

    Ben I know GTF can lol, Anna what about your bender? Can you get it this exact?

    Long term planning... :D
