The mounting holes are the same ones your front seats are mounted to. Last I looked, they're built to interface with those brackets on the front of the seat. Those bolts are also mounted on an angle. Moving the bracket to new drilled holes might be possible but I would think that wound also change the seat height.

I've been swapping my console for the jump seat for years now as my needs change. Years ago, I bought a used brown cloth jump seat out of an '06 to use in my King Ranch. It's small and my youngest (she's 10 now) is the only one that uses it. In my opinion, they weren't built to handle an adult.

I've got mine out right now. I'll take another look and re-post if I see something that might work.

 

This is what the bottom of your seat looks like. If it were me, I'd probably start by removing these 5 bolts and seeing if I could fabricate a bracket that would allow me to relocate those further back.


As far as the recline is concerned, I don't want to pull mine completely apart but I can tell there is at least one bolt holding the bracket on. I wonder if it also has a "keyed" pin that locks it at that angle. You may be able to adjust it there. However, I would also think that doing so there would result in a console that didn't lay flat when not in use. It looks like you'd need to remove the lower seat cushion off the frame to see that mounting point..

Yea I do recall that the brakets intertwine with each other. Im sure however it is possible to atleast slightly move it back. Im sure its fairly easy to just drill a couple of new holes in the bottom of the cab. However your take on the fact that the arm rest might not be flat is a smart observation. Going to keep that in mind.

I think that a new bracket is going to be unecessary. I think putting the middle seat with new holes directly behind the brackets holding the front seats would be the perfect distance too. Are you thinking by the way that the same pin/bolt that is holding the proper arm rest fold down height is the same pin/bolt that is holding the seat when reclined?

 

I was actually referring to the bolt that holds the bracket to the base of the seat.
