how tall are you guys cause Im 6ft 230lbs and that 97 dodge seat looked like it was gona be way to big for me to fit even if i did go to all the trouble to make it look right

I think the ramcharger seats are the best option so far. do they bolt right in or do you have to cut and fit? Do you think they have red I love my evil red and black color combo

I had a ramcharger once and they should bolt in or at least they should in an ex cab but I would think they would in a reg cab as well.

I'm 6'3 230-240lbs and it is tight. with the 2nd gen seat I have. Legs are close to the wheel. One of my friends is 6'8 and he can't sit up straight in it he'll hit his head on the roof.

I did the same thing basically in mine and built a frame and used the stock sliders from the bench seat. Put them in lower and further back but being a single cab and me being 6'1" it's still a little tight....the subs behind the seat don't help none either

Just made new seat mounts for the 2001 quad cab seats I have installed in my 92 reg cab. Had to do a lot of mods to the seat frames and build and mount some what like the one in the link posted. Went to start out doing the mount Big bad diesel posted a link to and found the seat frames are different

A lot more room now

Default seats

I used seats from a 95 Ford in my 93 D250 They have the added benefit of a flip-up center console for a third passenger. I had to make a couple of small mount pieces for the front to get it the correct height/angle. They're also heated and have power lumbar supports! Oh yeah! Don't forget the cup-holders!
