    if you do it traditionally ... yes
    if you do a stock floor then no but that means building a frame from the firewall back basically

    did you buy that core support if not go look at your 4runner thread

    if you have a body saw it makes it alot easier but if you dont then a cut off wheel will work just fine you dont have to cut much anyways the hard part is just figuring out where to drill the holes at and bolting them in

    Should have kept... '88 4x4 22RE
    Driver's side 4Runner bucket bolts in without drilling, passenger side mounts in front OE and rear with two drill holes about two inches forward from rear bench mount and seat belt mount on bench equipped trucks. Gotta get large washers for under body and space up the inside passenger rear support with a few washers to make it level if you're a pefectionist like me. DON'T BUY BUCKET SEATS FROM INDIANA TRUCK SALVAGE IN CORONA! THEY OVERCHARGE!

    I've got some mid 90's Celica seat in my 86 std cab, They sit a little bit lower than the stock bench, but I think it's a much better driving position. Went in with minimal effort.
