    So, I have a 75 LDO Maverick. I want to swap to 71 Mustang buckets as I like the style more. After removing one of the LDO seats and tracks and attaching it to the Mustang bucket, I notice the Mustang frame is about an inch wider than the LDO. Are the seat tracks different on the early Maverick and Comets vs. the LDOs that had the buckets?

    Thanks tody. That is my problem exactly. I will end up notching the tracks and the floor pans both to center up the seats, or I may move the seats outward half an inch or so as I would like to put a 71 Mustang console in as well.
