I stopped reading the first time because they said good fit for a 40 and 60, I didnt see that they had brackets for an 80.
the pair comes in at almost 900...
thats the same as Neoprene seats from Corbeau.
thats way out of the budget.... I need something that I could get at a pick and pull. but I cant find anything that says someone has successfully found a bolt in option from another make/model.
and you were considering Corbeau? Maybe if it were a buggy. But not gonna get much more comfortable than cloth 80 series seats... you got the good ones... maybe find a place to change out the cushion?
they are not bolt up but I could help you adapt them. It looks like it would be super simple with some angle iron. the 80 mounts are flat on the bottom, these have vertical rails.
I think they just need a hot wire.
They are some comfortable mofos, but I don't have room for them.

I know how that is. I have projects and to do list items piling up. after driving the cruiser to IL Kait and I both have sore backs. I was actually on craigslist looking at 100 series when I thought maybe trying to do something about the seats would be a less drastic solution.
I've driven diagonal country 5 times, and it has always sucked no matter what car... until the Scion tC. That trip was bliss there and back... I also heard that some have put those seats in 80's... prolly the most confortable daily driver seat I have ever been in.
May need to adapt them, but very worth it.
the seats in our xc90 are unbelievably comfortable, that's what made me go look for a set. For the money and effort involved I think the ones I have are the best bet - at least worth a try. Plus, with the tan leather in the dark truck you can call it a King Ranch Edition and get one of those F150 badges.

I gotta say, I thought my Tacoma TRD seats were more comfy than the 100 series. Only thing I'm not 100% thrilled about with the 100. I got the name of an upholstery shop from a friend and was going to see about having some foam added or something.
If you could find a set of seats out of a TRD Tacoma I'd say they're G2G. I drove that truck to Dallas twice, and to Moab once. Never a second thought about seats, they were comfy enough that I never thought about it at all.
My Tundra seats are comfy... but the angle of my cankle to the gas pedal brings the suck, and 1 hour into a towing trip, my leg is sore. If I can set cruise, it's OK... but if I gotta throttle for a long trip, bah!
