Parlusk,
That looks really great. I'm surprised you got Caddie seats into the Deuce. I have had several Caddies over the years and they all had large seats - larger than the standard military seat. Also, I'm curious how you mounted the seats. Do they sit on springs, did you install air bags, or what did you do ?

really nice setup. im in the process of collecting the parts for doing my interior. i have 2 springer seat bases now that i'll mount new seats on. having my buddy look at a junkyard tomorrow from some black leather seats. did you put anything underneath the carpet?

You have been busy! Deuce seats were designed for the comfort of draftee soldiers way back when.

Good job.

Nice install, I have been happy though with my spring seat and bench seat. The stock bench seat folds up and down. Plus the back side has diamond plating for soldier b to stand on.

Nice job

post a video when you install that invertor. I would love to see how that works out.

where did you locate the automotive grade carpet? I have seen some in auto parts stores, but it is more like speaker box carpeting with no backing. I spent most of the day today installing a set of toyota Tundra bucket seats in my bobber. Very smooth installation. Springer and cutdown bench for passenger. Got any ideas on the center console? I would like to see some pics, as I will start on that after the battery box that I am making to fit under the passenger seat.

I put a black leather air ride from a Kenworth (Bostrom Seating AIR-715E) in mine. It has a perfect width and depth to fit in a Deuce. I removed the arm rests since they are in the way and would not be used. That gives room for my M-16A1 carbine between the seat and the door. I hooked up the air at the air shift lever as others have done. I cut the base off the spring seat and welded it to this seat so I didn't have to monkey with the mounting and so I can take it to another Deuce easily just in case. The new OD green paint from Milspray looks purty next to the black leather. I cut rubber floor mats from heavy duty truck mud flaps I got cheap from Cal-Ranch.
