I bought a set of seat covers from Iggies on Ebay. They are great looking covers, fake leather. I need to remove the rear seats to finish the install. But i need a little help? How do the dang things come off?

 

I'm considering those too. I just saw this thread, but if you or someone else knows how, please post it. I didn't realize they had to come out. Do you have the 60/40?

 

I was just out there this afternoon trying to figure out how the upper parts folded down or got removed because people said they put amps back there but I can't figure out how to get back there to even put an amp there. lol.

 

Not that this will help but, I did notice that when you lift the seat cushion up, the seat back will move away from the rear of the cab slightly, then back again. This did help securing in my sons car seat. It has a teather that clips to a latch on the top of the seat back.

I bought my fold flat floor off Ebay, and putting that in only required removing & replacing two bolts, for the 60 side of my 60/40 seat. I think most people who sell their fold flat floors are putting in amps. Maybe they don't have to remove the seatback and only use the storage areas under the seat.

There must be some pics in the galleries of this kind of set up.

 

That is a possibility .. I think with the fold flat gone it would fit on the platform behind the holes and I could still use the storage. I liked the fold flat though for the dog in the back.

 

I think the bolts at the bottem with hold every thing in. I will give it a shot this after noon.

 

From an 04 service manual, should be the same

(1) Remove the load floor. (Refer to 23 - BODY/INTERIOR/

(3) Lift each seat assembly up and disengage the
seat back frame hooks from the footmans loops bolted
to the rear cab back. (Fig. 18)
(4) Remove the seats from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the seats into the vehicle and engage
the seat back frame hooks with the footmans loops in
