    I think I read on here somewhere that the seat tracks for a bucket seat Mav. will bolt onto Ford buckets through the 80's, including Fox Mustang bucket seats??

    Are the seat frames all the same bolt pattern? If so I have a set of 89 Mustang 5.0 seats that I can use and then just bolt on the Mav seat tracks?? Right???

    If this is the case, then I will be on the hunt for Early Mav. seat tracks.

    Most will work ... I just happened to find Granada buckets where the power driver seat had a wierd pattern on it. Passenger side was OK. I think they were re-using a power platform from some other model and adapted the drivers seat to it.

    The bolt holes should be 13 inches front-to-back for Mav tracks to bolt up. The width should be 14 inches between hole to be a bolt-in.

    Nice!! Now I need to find someone that has a set of seat tracks for sale. Preferably from an LDO as I read somewhere that they sit a little lower.
