About the Chevrolet Crew Cab Pickup
Chevrolet kept the square-body crew cab in production through 1991 as the R/V series, even after the new GMT400 pickups arrived for 1988.
Before You Install
Confirm your crew cab has front buckets before ordering.
Good to Know
Hardware is not stated.
Silverado and Scottsdale trims of these years offered upgraded interiors, sometimes with buckets.
Matching the pair keeps both front buckets uniform.
Call 574-226-6676 with crew cab questions.
Chevrolet introduced the crew cab on its full-size trucks for 1973, and the square-body design stayed in production for crew cabs until 1991.
Square-body crew cabs were mostly three-quarter-ton and one-ton trucks, and a 454 big-block or 6.2 diesel was common under the hood.
Front buckets in a Chevy crew cab usually came with a console between them, and the inboard buckle may mount near that console.
A Chevy crew cab with buckets is a less common configuration, so finding matched replacement belts can take some searching.
Chevy restyled the square-body grille several times, with a major front end update for 1981 that brought a lower, more aerodynamic hood.
Silverado, Scottsdale and Cheyenne trims were common on crew cab trucks, with Silverado having the best seats and trim.
Measure the Chevy bucket buckle stalks and compare them with the lengths Seatbelt Planet offers.
Gray, blue, red and saddle webbing match many Chevy square-body interiors.
The pair kit keeps both Chevy front buckets in the same webbing color and buckle style.
Chevy crew cab trucks often tow trailers, and a sound front belt is worthwhile for long trips.
The 1978-1991 Chevy crew cab buckets were often high-back seats with a fold-down armrest or console between them.
Chevy dealers sold many crew cabs to utility companies and ranches, and buckets were more common on personal-use trucks.
The 52 webbing colors let a Chevy crew cab owner match buckets trimmed in blue, red, saddle or gray.
Seatbelt Planet offers singles for these Chevy buckets if only one side needs a new belt.
Chevy dealers also sold the Suburban on a similar platform during these years, though Seatbelt Planet lists separate belts for it.
High-back buckets in a Chevy crew cab place the shoulder belt at a higher angle than a bench.
