SUVs Chevrolet Suburban & Tahoe Suburban Tahoe Seat Questions

I bought a 2006 Z71 with leather seats in the middle row. I have a kid on the way and was test fitting the car seat. it didn't fit well in the buckets and would like it in the middle better. can anyone tell me how I could or if its even possible to swap out the buckets for the split bench. the parts guy at the deal said I would have to buy the seat part by part and didn't want to total it up for me. I did't get the feeling that he really cared anyway. can anyone help?

These seats are incredibly expensive to order from GM. For example, I was quoted a price for a factory order for a Suburban leather 3rd seat....of nearly $2,000 and was told "that is if we can even get it". Seems there is no stock on this kind of stuff so GM has to actually pull the seat off the line then do shipping and handling, etc. They really don't want to do it...therefore the high price and limited availability. Your best bet would be to try to find a middle seat on Ebay....I know there are plenty of 3rd seats for sale. Middle seats probably much harder to find though.

Replying to: pwjj (Feb 24, 2007 2:31 pm) I have a 2007 Suburban and have no problem getting a 4x8 sheet of plywood in the back. You need to have the 2nd and 3rd rows folded flat and it goes in nicely and the plywood sits flat (a couple of feet before the tailgate are up in the air). Yea the Expy has the "fold flat" seats with a power fold option but you can remove the 3rd row completely in the Burb, tumble the 2nd row forward and have a pretty decent cargo capacity. You can also get a cargo mat that covers from the tailgate to the 2nd row (with 3rd row removed), protecting that GM carpet from Fido... Regards, -- Gregg Boston, Mass

I can remove the third row seat but can only tumble the second row forward. (The second row is not removable). So, how do you "fold them flat" when, at least according to GM, they don't Carl

Replying to: ceemme (Mar 14, 2007 1:18 pm) Fold the 3rd row flat (do not tumble forward) and also fold the 2nd row flat (do not tumble forward). The folded flat 2nd and 3rd rows are at the same level (at least they are on the Suburban) and a 4x8 sheet of plywood fits nicely. If you tumble the 2nd row forward you cannot fit an 8 foot item behind the seats and close the rear hatch. Regards, -- Gregg Boston, MA |
