Went with procar elites myself. Pics above. They bolted right on to the factory mounts. Love them. It beats 100,000 miles of farts on used BMW seats. How often do I adjust them? Never. Happy hunting.
I love mine, too...been putting my butt in them for years! I got mine at Iron Pig Off-road many many moons ago.
I got them from Thomas Sheets at Procar by SCAT | Custom Seating Solutions | Redondo Beach, CA - https://procarbyscat.com/. Bolt right on to the factory sliders.
Looks like the Procar Elite and the Corbeau seats look very similar, and the Corbeau is priced very similarly, but the Corbeau needs the Cruiser Corps brackets.
Copy on the corbeau's. I looked at them as well. Ultimately, I didn't want to mess with the seat height too much. i actually bought the procar's sliders for the seats and then discovered I didn't need them when the seats bolted on to the factory sliders. Hey - lesson learned. Passing it along so others don't spend the money on those procar sliders. The seat part numbers for the elites I ordered were: drivers/left - 80-1100-52L and passenger right - 80-1100-52R
Someday i'll reach out and chat with you on the 5.3/4L60E set up you have. I have to save a few more pennies and then schedule something up with hardline fabrication. Could be way sooner if my $AMC stock ship come in though! If that happens, I'm putting in a damn corvette engine and doing a frame off resto.
PM me any time, bro. I am just finishing up my 5.3 swap with a local shop in Nashville. He has done good work!
I would need the sliders that are sold with the seats, as I am running Honda Prelude seats the PO put in and I don't have the factory sliders installed...

Is this the exact SKU number for the ProCar Elite seat that works?
Copy on the mounts. Just be cautious of the procars seat sliders. I found that if I would have had to install them, the seat height would have gone up a few inches. I had to reach out to some fab shops to ask about how exactly I would have installed them. The procar sliders have little tabs that stick down on each end designed to mount to horizontal holes. You'll need a flat slider like the factory ones to bolt these seats right on. Found a pic of the sliders you'll be getting from procar. Hope this helps.
Not sure how your Prelude seats bolt onto the floor, but if you have still have the factory legs, you should be ok. First time I'm hearing of Prelude seats in an FJ. I was looking at all kinds myself to include Ford F-150 King Ranch, Jeep leather, Defender and the common BMW's.
Those are the ones. Got them in vinyl gray myself.Procar Elite™ Seat | Procar by SCAT | Custom Seating Solutions

Tennessee80,
Guess what I'm trying to say is that you would save yourself a ton of time if you bought the factory sliders and legs to bolt on these procars. I cleaned mine up and painted them black. Good to go.
Since I don’t have factory sliders, I will need to find some used ones somewhere

I’m 90% sure I’m going vinyl black. These are the Elite Lumbar DLX. I think they have a great retro look. Procar will make a rear seat cover in the same material for $475. This is a cheaper solution than SOR vinyl with new foam bottoms only . Not sure how I’d refoam the back portion on the OEM seats. I want comfort for long drives.
I got a set of the gray canvas ProCar seats from Jegs. Scat 80-1100-32L: Elite Series 1100 Seat 12" Hip Width - JEGS High Performance - https://www.jegs.com/i/Scat/942/80-1100-32L/10002/-1
I like the canvas feel and the seats are amazingly comfortable and an easy bolt in affair.
able comfortable.

Looks great. Did they bolt right in to OEM brackets? I have and 1986
Ok this thread got my attention. Can anyone comment about how high these seats sit compared to worn-out stock seats, specifically in an early-floor 60? Do you remember gaining headroom?

Is that an autodimming rearview mirror from a 4Runner you have there?
SQRRL - Yes they bolt right up to the stock brackets. It took less than 45 minutes to swap out both seats.
land cruiser - I got a mirror bracket from Wits End, Generic Mirror Arm and Block- 60/62 Series - https://absolute-wits-end.com/generic-mirror-arm-and-block-60-62-series/ , then bought a generic mirror off of eBay with temp and compas.
