Got my new seat covers and seat foam installed

Okbroncoman · Jun 23, 2017

Took some time and sore hands but I think they look good.

Hog ring were a chore to stretch the material and clamp.

And yes, I know it's the wrong rear seat frame, I can't seem to find anyone wanting to give me one. I mean sell me one.

Yes, they turned out very nice. BUT....the only "problem" I see is that the paint on the rest of vehicle now needs to be made match the beautiful seats! WE all know how that goes. %)

Looks great, I will probably be doing my 66 front seats next year/this winter, where did you get yours?

Bronco Hut, I ordered the front first then several months later ordered the rear.

Looks nice. I know what you mean about sore hands and the hog ring pliers. It's nice to put them away and forget about them after the job is done.

They turned out nice. I've done a couple of sets of buckets but never a rear seat. The new foam makes a big difference!

Rear seat wasn't bad, I painted the seat bottom black and I found some stainless steel staples. Thought it might help with any moisture.

So how bad is it doing it yourself?

I will be recovering my front seats soon, and I sprung for the higher quality hog ring pliers, but I pretty much gave up turning wrenches for a living back in 2013 when I had carpal tunnel release surgery on both wrists. Don't wanna aggravate that again!!

Okbroncoman · Jun 24, 2017

Really, it's not to bad.
You might get someone to help pull the material while you hog ring it.

This help me a lot
