I'm looking to get rid of my bench seat and put 2 separate seats. I've had no luck at junk yards and was wondering if anyone has bought eBay bucket seats and successfully installed them?

There is a seat swap article in the Tech Article library...it will help you determine what seats will fit the rails for a Ranger...and it is important to get a good set of rails...the one for the bench will work for the outside...so you will need an inside rail...and check to see that the floor was pre-drilled as many of them were already setup for buckets...if not...you will need to do that...

I have used seats from a Tempo and they are actually very comfortable and fit perfectly...not as nice as some others but they were dirt cheap since I had a Tempo...

Mine was not predrilled but the floor pan was dimpled where to drill.
