rear seat locating points

[maxwedge528]

going to install a rear seat in my 74 EB. there are no apparent holes drilled for the four? seat mounting bolts. i would assume side to side being centered. can someone tell me the distance from the tailgate opening or end of the floor pan to the center of the rear mounting holes? thanks in advance

Here is a link to toms bronco parts, they have the measurements for the seat mounting points.http://www.tomsbroncoparts.com/pages/?attachment_id=1329

If you look closely, there should be small factory dimples in the floor where they holes are to be drilled on the line if the Bronco got that configuration.

We are doing final body work on an original frame off resto now and are taking care not to let them get lost with the layers of primer and paint.

There were also dimples for the front buckets as ours is a bench model.

I guess you found the technically correct location, but you can put a 40 Qt cooler behind the seat and then drill the holes.
