My truck came with two Driver's springer seats. I guess the driver, and the A-driver of the unit that was assigned this truck wanted a better ride.
Let me tell you, they really do feel okay!

I don't know where you can find any of these seats. There were many sold on here recently. Perhaps some fellow SS are having buyers remorse and will sell...

This has got me thinking about using a springer base and a high-quality mountain-bike shock, in combination with a nice bucket seat. Hmmm, anybody on the west coast got an extra springer seat base or two?

Some of the springer bases have bars for seat belts, with webbing going to bolts in the cab. The bases that don't have the mounting bars, the belts are just bolted to the back of the cab.

OK, thanks. The springer bases are strong enough to mount seatbelts to though? I've got some really nice Schroth 4-point harnesses that I'm planning on putting in Mah Deuce, so I was planning on making custom mounting points, but I didn't know if the springer bases were strong enough and I don't really like the idea of the seats / seatbelts not being mounted together.

I put a 40/60 split front bech seat from a 1990 GMC 3/4ton. Fits in good for me, I mostly use my truck on the farm and for hauling wood. I am ~6'5", so this allowed me to put the seat back and down farther. (My original seats were junk)

Dakota, do your seat make you feel more cramped than stocked? I am not very tall and I already feel cramped. Also, did you mount the driver side to the spring platform?
Thanks, Dave
