Corbeau A4 seats for trade, preferably

Post by akaFrankCastle »

Yup. I'm looking to trade my Corbeaus. These are the A4 models and are pretty slim on the cushioning so if you have a long commute or a sensitive backside, you might want to pass. Corbeau also states these are best for 34-36" waists, or smaller. So... I'm a 32 (or so I keep telling myself) and found they were comfortable at the waist, when I wasn't carrying my pistol. However, they are a bit tight at the shoulders for my taste, and so they have to go.

Included in the trade are the Corbeau 66-77 Bronco mounting brackets. I will tell you that despite what I consider the high quality of Corbeau's seats, their brackets are complete crap, with mismatched holes and no offsets designed for the bolts that hold the seats to them to clear the floor. But, you get all the nuts, bolts, and washers I used to make them work.

I am looking for a set of stock Bronco front seats in Parchment White in good to excellent condition. They must function (fold forward, slide front to back, etc.), not look as if Jabba the Hut has been sitting on them for the last 20 years, and of course be white, not some grease stained version of white. Just to show my standards are not THAT high, they can also have been farted on in the past, so long as none of those farts were solid and occurred sans pants.

If you are really super interested in the seats (and why wouldn't you be, I'm a helluva salesman here), I'll entertain a cash offer for them. I've got the original seats I can bolt back in, if the right stockers don't come along soon.

Pictures will be up tomorrow, with the sun. Questions always welcome.

Keep reminding me. I'll remember to measure one of these days. If not, you can give them a test sit on the 18th.

I found a set of stock seats AND have a Bronco to put them in so probably going to hang on to the Corbeaus for now.
