I'd like to change my original seat out in my truck, I'm a tall person and makes it difficult to see under the exterior sun visor. Any suggestion as to kind of seat that will fit would be welcome.

The older trucks were very narrow in the cab area. You'll need to find a Ford Ranger, Chevy S-10, Dodge Dakota, or some seat like that to fit side to side.

dropping the seat gives you better sight but less leg room
at 6'4'' i raised the seat in my 58 chevy truk
i lost sight above but gained legroom
personally i'd get rid of the visor, if your tall it is pretty worthless for the sun anyway :D

these are 07 ford fusion seats in my 58, removed headrest, chopped back 6'' and raised then 2'' above stock





i have heard the rear seat of a denali works, but most people are short and don't worry about legroom
nothing against short people, i know some decent short people, i even let my daughter marry one :D:D:D
