71 chevy c-10 seat swap

I have been working on my 71 c-10 for several years ,and I picked up a seat from a early 90's chevy truck real cheap. I have seen these seats in older trucks, but I never noticed if the brackets were cut down or if they were stock heigth. It seems that the seat is a little too high in relation to the steering column. It is no big deal to chop the brackets, but I just wondered if anyone else had done this.
