From your signature, I'm presuming that your truck is the '94, not the sold '91 you had, but you might still want to check for cracks in your floor pan when you take out the captain's chairs. There was a Ford TSB for the pre-90 models about how the seat mounting on the captain's chairs led to cracking in the weak floor pan design. I have an '89 crew cab with captain's chair, and I just replaced my carpet on Sunday. When I pulled the carpet, I noticed a really bad cruciform-shaped crack (about 3 inches x 2 inches, complete with daylight coming through!!) right where the transmission hump met the rise for the driver's seat. I ended up doing some extensive weld repairing to a very large section of it to make sure the situation didn't repeat. (I also laid down weld bead going about an inch past where the crack stopped in each direction of the 4-way crack ground the whole thing smooth to mitigate any potential crack propagation.) I think one of the POs was a really fat *******, because he also trashed the driver's seat track! (Had to replace that too.......)
If anyone else who might follow this thread is interested, here's the ford TSB:

Do they fit with little to no modification? Hole all the same? I've found a '94 reg. cab with a decent interior that I'm considering buying and raiding for this purpose.
