Converting CC front seats to fold forward?

Im swapping a set of front 40/20/40 seats out of 99 F350 CC into a SC truck, and I need to get the front seats to fold foward. Is there anyway I can do this? I havent looked at the pawl or any of the mechanism yet, because the seats are at my shop, just wondering if anyone had any advice or knowledge on how to do this?

Don't the SCs have the seatbelts on the seat, while the CCs do not?

I don't know about the recline mechanism and if it can be changed to the SC-style with the swing forward capability. That's getting into one of the safety areas I am very hesistant to muck around in.

The CC seats are out of a 99 F350, they are going into a 96 SC F250, so the seatbelts are still in the body, not the seat.

Ahh, okay. No 3rd (and 4th) doors. Got it.

But I still don't know about the recline mechanism.

Re: Converting CC front seats to fold forward?

All you have to do is use the mounts off of the 96 seats. The should bolt on about the same with little fabrication.My brother did it to his 93 with a set of 2000 seats he bought on here.
I think his TDS name is Judd777.
