New to this forum but not to Cruisers. Have owned a 60 since 1982, an 80 since 1997 (both still running well) and recently purchased my first 40 - a white 1977, previous owner did a mostly complete frame off restoration. Believe originally from Costa Rica. I’ve updated the tires from Chinese to BFG Mud Terrain, added heat, switched to LED headlights, added fog lights. I’ll post some pics as I figure out how.
Here’s where I need some advice: It has a 60/40 split front seat in good condition. But passenger side has limited leg room as it’s about 6 inches forward compared to drivers seat and also A/C under dash. I am 6’3 and my wife is 6’. How hard to switch to buckets with center console and more leg room? Would prefer maintaining seat frame. I can’t cut and weld and don’t want to drill more holes if I don’t need to. What are the best options?
