Chevy Suburban swap bucket seats for a bench seat

[@DirtReborn]

This is good to know, I'm looking for one. Now I know not to be deterred from buying one with buckets. We need the bench too! Thanks.

[@ryanwood7756]

What color. I gotta grey leather 60/40 2nd row bench i would trade for 2nd row grey leather captain chairs.

[@CIorox_BIeach]

This is great. We've been considering ripping out the front bucket seats and console, and replacing 'em with a bench so it's possible for everybody to sleep in the car comfortably at truck stops while traveling.

[@shopwarrior1835]

Nice! Great idea.

[@BigDaddyJ-DcAudioFTW]

Did you do that?I want to do the same.

[@ForTheFlame]

Anyone try this and know if this is in fact possible? We have an 02 suburban and would love to swap the driver/passenger buckets and console for a front bench to make our 8 seater a 9!

[@tommymadux3646]

@@ForTheFlameyes you can pull a bench seat with the flip up jump seat out of any Silverado and they will bolt right in. Just make sure to get the dash piece to cover the hole where the center console went. Try some of the Silverado and duramax forums they are people always willing to swap for the consoles. Save some money possibly. All the gm trucks and suvs use the same seat mounting as long as its the same part of the floor layout. Like crew can truck matches suburbans and yukon xl and all are the same from the b pillars forward

THANKS, I'm planning on acquiring a Sub or Yukon, and I will probably have to do the Captain chair to Bench Swap.

[@blackbird6695]

Doing the same thing soon, didn’t like the captain chairs😒 need more room for my kids👍 good to know it fits.

[@shopwarrior1835]

I've been very happy with the swap! May swap back when the kids are older but it works great for now.

[@danielfisher3545]

@@shopwarrior1835 just started looking for the same gen suburban for my family. wife is convinced we need captains chairs to facilitate 2 car seats and easy access to the third row. You both think the bench is the better option, tell me more, how do you arrange the car seats? Thanks!

[@mexicanpower544]

Fits perfectly rear-facing in our truck, which has a slightly smaller back seats. kzbin.infoUgkx6_FKRYB2ClSPRyjcd8HptiCS3EiQoNX4 Feels as comfy and plush as our Graco Contender carseat.

[@jeffboone7959]

Love bench seats.

[@crystalaragon4451]

What year and make n model would fit in a 2008 Chevy suburban. I’m trying to replace bucket seats for a bench seat but idk what would fit from another truck

[@rodrigomejia9096]

Do you know if this would work for a 2001 suburban? With the donor seat coming from a 2005 Tahoe.

[@XxEmowolvexX]

Thank you!!!

[@leejacobsen1279]

Does are later years of suburban interchangeable too? 2010-2015?

[@dominiqueperez5772]

What type of seats did you find that were compatible with your suburban? And also what year is your truck?

[@ronaldgraves2734]

You did not actually show the complete process. I am having trouble removing the 2nd row bucket seat. The two front bolts are easy. Its the two rear bolts that are the problem. There is a flap behind the bucket seat that cover the two rear bolts. How did you remove the cover to get to the rear seat bolts. This video would have been perfect if you would have shown the actual process of removal.

[@funguy7979]

Can this be done on a 2007-2014 model suv..Tahoe, Escalade etc???

[@justinault8445]

How hard would it be to switch my bench Seat to buckets? Do.i need any hardware or anything from the donor suburban I'm getting the buckets from?

[@brandongrimes9880]

Can you switch the front seats for bench seats?

[@jacobjensen8592]

I'm looking to switch my front bucket seats and center console for a bench third middle seat option. Were you able you do it?

[@ForTheFlame]

​@@jacobjensen8592we are hoping to do this also but not finding any info on whether or not it is possible! If you get an update, please share. I will do the same!

[@dalesmithiii5999]

It should be possible just pull a bench seat from a chevy 1500/2500 of the same body style. I've seen these suburbans with a bench in the front

[@Brian-ug7du]

Great video! We have same vehicle and a 4th kid coming soon. Can you tell me what age kids you are seating where and what type (if any) car seats they are in? Thanks

[@shopwarrior1835]

We have 2 kids in car seats, one in a booster, and one 12 year old. We have a mix of car seat brands.

[@speedracer3967]

What would you recommend for a 2004 Yukon XL, I need to do this exact swap. I am having trouble locating a bench seat, would the suburban seats fit the Yukon, or am i SOL?

[@ashleymccaleb8825]

The suburban seat will fit in the yukon xl. We put the 2nd row and 3rd row in ours from a yukon xl.

[@ceasargeorge2869]

Thanks for video

[@aprilczebotar8933]

Do you know if a 3rd row bench seat can be used to replace 3rd row bucket seats.

[@areeyecue]

Yeah no one is talking about how to take out the seats..most have already done it...I'm stuck with the rear passenger bolt in the back.. it's stuck under the rail... No room for any tools any suggestions would be great...

[@mattb6001]

Yep I’m stuck at the exact same one

[@erikscrabeck9422]

Do you still have the seats?

[@superman1251]

Sweet. How many miles on the rig ?

[@shopwarrior1835]

About 170k miles now and running strong!

[@kaitlenfarris7233]

can you please help me where to locate a middle row bench? I am having no luck

[@kaitlenfarris7233]

Due with baby #6 in two months and trading in car doesnt seem like an option. Please help if you have any leads on where to locate a bench for 2019 suburban

[@purplefurture6960]

Can i the chairs facing each other like carnival kia ?

[@ceasargeorge2869]

You neglected to show the actual removal and installation.

[@shopwarrior1835]

Yes I did. I didn't decide to do the video until I was half-way through the project - wish I would have captured that for you.

[@SirhC87]
