Dave, You provided some excellent tips. Here are a couple more; Brother sells seat foam, but if you want to keep it a while, flip over, inspect. Any worn or spots that might tear on front or edges, cut some oversized burlap, spray contact cement on both. Work into these areas to add strength and save foam. 1/2" medium density foam can be glued on top if the foam is dead. Use the contact cement spray like 3M 99 high-heat, high-strength. Hot air from hair dryer will work out wrinkles but keep moving. Hot air guns can damage fabric or vinyl but use a damp towel and welders gloves to stretch material. Inspect the frame, clean and paint if rusted as this can cut into foam & material. Check spring clips and pinch with pliers as needed. Best of luck with your project. DK, Omaha.

Get a nice pair of hog rig pliers, it's night and day and worth every penny.

Nice job. I have a broken seat glide. I didn’t see the for sale. Do you sell them. Mines a 1983 k20.

[DumbCarGuy]

On your website. I have a 1983 Chevy Silverado K20 just like the one your working on there. Why is it that when i go through the pop up windows I punch in chevrolet, then K20 pickup, then it comes to the year it only lets me go to 1974? After trying multiple combos I have to go back and select C10-all just to get to the 80s. Am I doing something wrong or is there an oopsie on your pop up window year selector? I couldn't find help on the website so I'm asking here.

[chicagoalmightyth]

I wanted to buy some.. but I see you're limit on kits for a 1983 k5

[southgeorgia]
