seat tracks year model interchange

Hi all just a easy question I'm sure has been answered before! will 71 seats bolt into stock location on a 68-70 charger? 3rd to 2nd generation? thanks for your time S

[Ghoste]

Not so easy after all.  I had a 69 Coronet once several years ago that had 71 Charger buckets in it.  I THINK (and I can't stress that enough), they bolted right in.  But that was 20 or 25 years ago so I won't be held to that.

no

They shouldn't but I don't have a definitive answer. I don't currently have a 3rd gen to measure either.

The 3rd gen are longer apart, you can drill new holes and mount them.  I have done that before, but I don't like the way they sit.  Seat bottoms are a little wider than the 70 high backs as well. Guess i needed to elaborate, rather than just answering the question.

[Ghoste]

Well wider probably explains why my Coronet didn't have a console in it.

[purple70rt]

you can get a console in ok, to me, in my opinion, it just does'nt look and feel right.  I'm sure there are people who love the diffrent seats, just something you have to try out yourself.

why not just go with 70 seats?, they are basically identical? 71 covers fit 70 seats so if thats the look u want thats the look u can get-MATT
