I'm 5'11" and the Grand Cherokee seats I have fit me with no problem and the gas tank in the cab. The nice thing about the '99 Cherokee seats I have is that they actually curve back then bend straight up which is perfect for our trucks, rather than simply angled back where they would hit the window. I'll try to get some picks of this when I get home from OR.

I got this seat out of a 84 dodge. I used two pieces of bed frame bolted to the 68 slides and then bolted the seat to the bed frame.

I like the idea of late 90s RAM front seats with the console. My question is what fits in the back of a crew? Back seats from a RAM 4 door or extended cab?

I don't have a pic. but I used lil red express seats in my 65 sweptline. I did it because I found it cheap, they looked good, and they had a center counsol. My bench was toast. I had to make an adapter bracket of course, but kept the original mounts, didn't hack them up so if I ever wanted to go back to a stock bench I could. The lil red express looks very similar to the optional buckets you could get in the 60s. It looks right for my truck. Plus, I can still haul 2 passengers and have a counsel underneath for storage to boot!

I agree above, that there little to no room for a guy over 6 foot in this cab. make sure whatever seat you go with, it doesn't hog up any additional leg space. I have a knee that throbs after 45 min of drive time because I cant stretch out like I would want. Next upgrade will be cruise control so I can move my legs around on longer cruises. That would help out! After market cruise controls are cheap.
