Cool Stock seats out... Sparco's IN!!!

I spent some time back in good ol Chicago with my good friend Rob G. We installed the Expidition center console and the passenger Sparco sport bucket seat. The driver's side seat had to be sent back because one of the mounting holes didn't lineup to the bracket, we'll install the drivers seat at a later date. We also installed the JDM line mod valve, which i must say is quite nice. Truck makes the 1-2 shift awesomely. Thanks for the help Rob Beer is on me next time!

Looks sweet! How much did the seats run? What model Sparco's are they? Big weight savings?

Advantages of the Milano over the Torino? There is a 200 dollar difference in the two seats. Did the Expi console bolt up easily?

Gotta ask Rob about the stock seats they are his now. The console is a direct bolt in. The brackets for it bolt up directly to hidden holes in the cab.

DO you have partnumbers for the center console conversion?


When you did the sparco seats, did they come with brackets already fabricated by them or did u have to custom make em?

Thanks
Anthony

The brackets were already fabricated by Sparco. They make brackets for almost any vehicle. As far as part #'s for the console...I wouldnt go to the dealer and try to buy one. It'll cost you a small fortune. This console was bought at LWM for 90$, Now if you don't want to be so radical, do the passanger seat conversion. Here are the part #'s you'll need to convert it into a bucket.


F65Z-1561709-CAJ SUPPORT ASSY. $85.65
YL3Z-1563100-BB SPG ASSY. $51.92
YL3Z-15603A86-BAA HANDLE ASSY. $18.75

These parts are available through your local Ford dealership.

Here is a link to the bucket seat mod I did. By the way you need to find a console that is a "take out". Ford doesn't sell it as a complete kit. You have to purchase all the pieces and put it together. I lost interest in doing that after the price got to around $300 and I didn't have all of the pieces priced out. If your interested I do have the parts lists and part numbers if you want to order the parts and put it together yourself.
