    WTB Trade/Buy 2nd row bench

    I have a 2021 Explorer ST with captains chairs. Would like to trade or buy someone’s bench seat. Located in metro Detroit, willing to travel and make something work.

    Ford third row floor liner?

    Hey so I ordered the husky third row mat from Amazon. It covers the whole area between the seats. Hope this helps Husky Liners Weatherbeater | Fits 2022 Ford Explorer, 3rd Seat Floor Liner - Black | 14441 https://a.co/d/6mw2wQM

    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    And based on what I saw this is incorrect as the bench uses the same 4 bolt holes as the center console. Based on this I am 100% sure that captains to bench is good to go. The issue is finding a bench from an ST. It's basically impossible from what I can tell. Very few STs with bench option...

    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    Im surprised this DIY isn't a sticky. Far as swapping, from what I remember it was swapping the captain chair's to a bench seat what people wanted to do, not the opposite. Which was not "doable" I believe since there aren't any bolt holes on the bottom to bolt down the middle seat with the...

    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    The white stitching is exclusive to the ST. The bench or captains chairs out of a Limited or XLT is the same seat but does not have the white stitching.

    Calling all parents (child seat questions)

    Hey late to the party, sorry. I have two kids. When we were looking to buy our ST at the end of 2019, I originally ordered a bench seat thinking that was best. I ended up swapping to captain's chairs, which I think worked out better. The kids were rear facing for a while - they are now both...

    I'm disappointed

    It was an ST with just the 400a package and street pack. Had a bench seat and the 3rd row manual folding.

    Considering ST but need a bench rear seat

    My local dealer has a few 2022 STs listed in the 48-50K range, which I believe is a great price. However, I really need the bench in the rear (they all have captain chairs). Is retrofit possible? Has anyone done it? If yes, how much work are we talking about?

    Pretty sure they do. I think they are also used to mount the bench seat.

    Swapping 2nd row from captains to bench

    Swapping 2nd row from captains to bench

    It is possible, as someone has done the reverse (bench to captains chairs). The driver and passenger side have LATCH, the middle seat can only be installed with a seatbelt.

    VIN needed for 2nd row bench seat car

    Unfortunate that those aren't the ST rear bench with the white stitching, cause that's a hell of a deal. Would just look odd in the back with all the other stitching being white.

    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    The process of moving from captains to bench will be similar to the above, but you'll just need to consider the carpet situation (Bench-specific carpet part number TBD). I suspect going to the bench will be slightly more difficult mainly due to lacking that seatbelt monitor wire. I havent yet...

    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    11) Take note of what you see here, and you'll realize quickly there are a few issues that need to be addressed. The bench carpet is cut differently than the Captains chairs carpet to accommodate the plastic center console frame. Also, since we are removing the middle seat and replacing it...

    How-To: Swap Bench 2nd row to Captains Chairs with Console

    4) Find a way to cover your doors and door frames. I used blankets taped to them. This is to make sure you don't scratch shit when removing the seats through the doors as they can be hard to maneuver. 5) Remove both seats. You'll now have just the middle seat remaining (if bench)

    UNBROKEN’s Iconic Silver ST build

    Knocking another thing that annoys me off my list. I hate the tall 2nd row headrests. I modified the middle seat headrests to work on the outside of several of my previous trucks including my 2015 F250 Platinum and my 2016 F150 Platinum. So I started digging and it looks like the middle seat...

    VIN needed for 2nd row bench seat car

    I’m in need of a VIN for an ST with the 2nd row bench to hunt down some parts. Also, if you have one does the middle seat headrest have white stitching like the outer headrests? Thanks.

    Second row bench

    So, not that I don't believe this, but I'm just curious, are you really saying they drill different body mount holes for bench vs captains? This would seem crazy to me in a mass production scenario. They usually make the bodies so these parts can just be used one way or the other. It has to...
