'72 Bench seat foam

Post by Big bird »

Just bought a '72 Camper Special Ranger XLT. Want to reupholster the bench seat. Before I do, Id like to replace the seat foam. Does anybody know where this can be purchased? Wife and I want to keep the original bench seat.

Usually the springs sag before the foam does, unless someone behind tore it out after the vinyl failed. I don't know of an aftermarket source but the seat design stayed the same up to '95 or so and they'll bolt right in place. Shouldn't be too hard to find a decent later model seat and cannibalize it or just recover it instead.
