Default seat track question

the seat tracks in my 72 do not line up with the hole in the floor. these are obviously from a different year. while searching for at true set ive noticed that i could find them for several years up to 71 and some from 73 up. are the seat tracks in a 72 different from other years? thanks...don

I do believe the tracks are the same...it's the fore & aft mounting brackets that are welded to the track that are different. You can buy just the 72 forward & rear mount brackets and have them welded to the track for less $$$. (I did)

Sorry dude, it's been a few years, but it was one of the "major" catalog vendors.

If I remember correctly...the fronts are the same...it's the rear that's different.
This is what you need...available from ZIP for $17.00
