Beard seats, Any one using them?

Thanks Chuck and everyone else for your replies! I spent some time last night looking at BC Bronco's and Beard's web sites. I also looked at the old posts that came up. Seems like the main issues are height / vision issues, and rear seat access. Cost is something also... I have not made up my mind yet. I have an 8" Tuffy box that I do not want to change out. I will keep measuring and looking at all the options.

My Beards are Street A/T's. I have an 8" Tuffy box between them and it fits fine. I'm sure that Mastercrafts or any others with similar width across the seat area will also fit.

I will install the drivers side this weekend, Beard is swapping out my passenger side for another drivers side because I am mounting to a rollcage. I will snap some pics tho. If they weren't going to swap them it would be an easy mod to cut off the leg on the passenger side and weld a tab there to retain the tilt function, but I don't really care if they tilt or not. I will say I like the way the tilt is engineered,very sturdy.

No these are some I have had since 99 just basic seats, I had made a bracket to use the factory mounts out of some angle but then I put in the rollcage and that made the seats sit too high so I sprung for the beard brackets. I like the beard seats, wide people don't. Oh and my tuffy fit fine between them.

if you want them wider just get the plus 3 inch ones,they are alot wider,but you can only run very thing consoles then. i run the basic super seats with permanant headrest
