Anyone got a set cheap?
Mike, this should be moved to the Parts WANTED section if that's what you're looking for...
, i'm 0/2 for posting them in the wrong catagory lately. Could you move please?
Define "cheap". The last drivers manual I had I sold for $150...
Christ, Maybe I can live with power seats. I thought they would be cheaper as power would be more deseriable.
More cars came with power by a long shot. Manual pass seat tracks go for about $10-$25. Driver's side go for $50-$250 depending on whether it's ebay or not.
lol, i paied like $15 for my drivers manual track from a junkyard. tho, i had to search about 10 different yards for almost 6 months to find one that ended up being in a swamp:hick:
, and I let a set of manual tracks for both sides sit outside and rust! I was sure that no one would want 'em.
Yep. The ONLY way to get them is through the same 6 month JY swamp way. :hick:
bah. go get mustang seat racks.
Worked for meh.
I have mustang seat tracks, I was told they wuold not work. Clayton, are you telling me they work without mods or no?
Lol.
C'mon, I kinda need to know before I pull the seats just to find out they don't fit. Then again I should havee my new stang seats soon to put in....
You already have the mustang seat tracks, just unbolt your seat & try 'em.
New project for tomorow it is.
i guess i feel lucky that my 84 has manual seat tracks hehe snickers... didnt check if the other one im looking at has em too
I have dual power seats. but since those are soming out to be reaplostered I wana keep them as a set( IF they ever get done), I'm going manual seats to save weight. Then I'll probaly go SN95 Grey seats in the front and a grey back seat from one of our cars.
Mustang tracks fit the seats...but not the floorpan...only T-Bird/Cougar tracks fit the floorpan...so you figure all this out. ;)
This is getting comfusing. I'll just try and we'll see. I *thought* all fox seat traxks fit all fox seats, but the tracks are spicific to the cars. But if someone here has donw stang tracks in a bird, do tell before 3pm tomorow.
Mikey... ever considered just leaving the power seats in the car?
The floor pans are different, that's why they don't fit.
I was going to change seats, I wanted to keep the seats and the tracks together. If I was going stang seats, I thought stang stracks would fit. Fox tracks will not fit, any idea's about SN95 stang or even MN12 birds as an idea?
well what ever you do i have a pass. side manual if you want it.. if you still need the steering wheel i can ship them together
PM me with a qoute for prices and I'll let ya know
REPEAT WITH ME: ONLY 1983 through 1988 Thunderbird/Cougar seat tracks will fit Thunderbirds and Cougars from 1983 to 1988. Not sure about about 1980-1982. MN-12 cars are unique in their floorpan...
CLASS DISMISSED!
Point taken. Just trying to expirement
hey if any of you guy have a manual driver side seat track. i am interested in buying. Plz let me know. :bowdown:
I think that's the purpose of this thread in the first place, lmao :evilgrin:
try looking in your local swamp, it CAN pay off ;)
If anyone finds seat tracks, I got dibs. otherwise ask Vinnie, he knows where EVERYTHING for our cars are. Him or maybe Mike
I actually have a set, but they aren't for sale.
why would you take a full option car and start pulling things off it???? I don't understand.
To keep it a full option car for the future. I want the seats recovered, so I'm pulling them. I might as well keep the tracks with the seats. So thats why I'm looing for manuals. If I can't find a set, then they stay power. No loss. Not like I'm chpooing wires like they will never go back in, just removing them till I can have them done right
Dude, I'm trying not to be a dick here, but seats are the least of your concerns. If I were you, I'd probably leave it power and keep your eyes peeled for manual tracks.
Thats the idea. I did pull the seats to clean under them and found over a doller in change IN the seats alone:D Then a few ccig. butts and the normal stuff.:beatyoass: Thanks for the widsom gained guys
Thanks ford freek that was the reason for me asking to let people know I am looking for 1 to buy for which I was unsuccessful at the salvage yards. But thanks for pointing out the obvious. :beatyoass:
I have 2 of them as of today.
search this forum, there have been at least one person, maybe 2 that posted pictures of how they modified there mustang seat tracks to fit the tbird/cougar
Are you willing to sell them vinnie? :banana:
Vinnie has them listed in his for sale thread for $50, I think.
That's the only reason I bought them was so I could sell them and make a few bucks for the Sport.Yes,they are for sale.Go to my thread in the for sale area and check it out.I added a lot of stuff.
