CUCV Bucket Seats - Some ???s

Got some questions for you CUCV experts:
Are the 1009 Blazer and 1010 Ambulance the same seats?
What civilian Chevy/GMC did these come out of, someone told me S-10?

The reason I am kicking this around for my 1008 is to make room between the seats for the HMMWV a/c kit evaporator. Can you imagine how cold that cab could be with that setup?

I was told no they are not. A member here sold me NOS front seat covers for the m1009 and asked about another set he had. He said it was for the M1010 and wold not work on the M1009.

Yes, the front seats on the M1009 are the same as the S10,S15 seats on the 83 up to at lest the 86 years bother the trucks(with buckets) and the little blazers, but the colors are differant and the base that holds them to the floor won't work either.

Today I did see a 1986 K5 blazer in the junk yard that had the same style seat as the m1009 only in fabric and blue. I thought the big blazer only had the bigger butt and low back seats in them. Yea, it looked to be origanal.

One big difference with the 1010 seats is they don't fold forward. Other than that I couldn't say.

The seats in the M1009 are also the same as 82 - 86 Camaro/Firebird and Cavalier also. The sliders are obviously different, but the seat it self is the same.

The M1010 seats are WIDER than the M1009. I have NOS for both sets of seats. Trust me. The M1010 upholstery is wider.

Did you ever get the 1010 seats for your 1008? I want to do the same conversion and was wondering how the conversion worked out for you?
Thanks!

You want to sell those m1009 covers???? if so pm me

I would like to have the bucket seats in my M1008 but my Dog would not like it one darn bit. Over 2/3rds of the seat is his. I only get to use a small portion of the left side when He rides with me.

If you are after replacements for the M1009- the S10 seats that look the same as the ones you have (or should have) now are plentiful at the wrecking yard. I picked up a very nice pair and switched the bases. Painted the metal black (flat) and the seats with SEM- the paint code is under one of my previous posts. They look and feel like new.

... Both seats, console and door panel all dyed

... seat hardware painted Flat Black (chalkboard). Dash was painted with SEM Burgandy Dye- from a rattle Can before I purchased correct color. It is close enough for now- Dash Mat hides a crack.

I used the hinge bracket out of a stock civi blazer so my seats recline now great mod!

jdeoliveira74, was this a direct swap out, or were modifications to the frame of seat needed. I'd be up for reclining as I sometimes find camping conditions poor when I get there.

yes it was a direct swap three bolts cheap great mod

shhh... you can also pull them from bucket seats out of Suburban models of that vintage as well but you didn't hear it from me

I just wish we could get them from LMC

I thought the burbs where P-up base???

Burbs mount to floor the floor on burbs is like the pickup, it uses no base!!!

seats

while similar in appearance,the seats are different. the mounting is different and requires the M1010 seat for use in the M1008 or M1028. I have both vehicles and agree with the other comments.

M1031
M1009
M1008
M35A2
M1010

I have a good passenger seat for a M-1009. The price is right....FREE....I hate to toss it. Even has the side release cable. No base...just the seat.
I'm in Braselton, Ga.
Local pick up only.

Place a Parts wanted post in the Classifieds. And finding nice bolt in and use M1009 seats at this point in the game will be difficult. Finding rebuildable ones will be difficult but I think still an option. Must they be stock color? And seats only not the base pedestals? Send me a PM sometime. I can look.
