Bucket seat removal

The passenger seat and the center console were self explanatory but I am stuck on the drivers seat. Is it on studs and there are nuts on the underside of the truck? Its on a ramcharger half buried and if thats the case its going to be a PITA to remove. I see no access around the base of the seat itself.

Its in a salvage yard with no rims or tires sitting embedded partially in the dirt. It also has running boards making it all the more impossible to get underneath it. I will try a jack but i'm not sure that the ground will support it.

3/4" Plywood under the jacks works well... although it might just tip the truck over, being it's on the rims...
