With the price of new or close to new diesels being pretty high, I'm just going to keep fixing up the 95. I've planned on some body work to fix some rust and holes that the previous owner managed to poke in her, and I'd like to upgrade the interior. I farm and leather wipes up instead of collecting dust like my cloth seats do. Unfortunately, I was not able to find a truck in the price range I was looking for with leather, so I'm considering an upgrade. Does anybody know where I could find the whole assemblies for front and rear that are decent shape? I thought about covers, but my center console hinge is pretty messed up and it would be nice to start over.

Thanks, Pat

 

Try this for leather covers.

They look very nice and the price is very fair.

You can fix the hinge

 

what color, a buddy of mine has a set of tan leather seats from a 97' wreck he bought, they aren't "perfect", but they are still very useable, if you could use them let me know & I'll get ya a price, Dusty

Actually, I thought the same thing about leather being super hot in the summer, until I got a REAL leather seat on my motorcycle. Real leather does not get that hot. It is the cheesy vinyl leather imitation that has given leather that rep. Most factory seats have very little leather in them, and what is there, is usually low quality. Many people think when they buy leather seats in a new car, the whole seat is leather, but only a small portion of the seat panels are. Katzkin makes a terrific leather kit. My father has their leather on two of his vehicles, much better than factory from any of the domestic manuf. and on par with the German leather seats. They still use leather seating panels only, but the vinyl on the sides and backs are such good quality it is hard to tell it is not leather and the leather is very high quality.
