Bench Seats Model Years 05 vs 09
Hey everyone!
Just bought an 05 Express 3500 15 Passenger... buuuuuut it's missing the last three rows of benches. I found someone with *all three* of the rows I need on FB, but they're from an 09. I believe the 3-seaters will fit (rows 3 & 4), but I'm not sure about the 4 seater in row 5. Does anyone know what year ranges are compatible with one another? I've searched high and low for the last three days for a relatively clear answer to no avail. I'd bring it to the person and try it, but I'm waiting for my AC to be repaired and the seats are a solid 3 hrs from me, so I'd like to at least have a little confidence they'll fit before taking the ride.
I know Chevy hasn't made too many huge changes to this van over the years, but that last 4 person row looks like it may be one of 'em. Even if this set is no good, it would be super helpful to know what would fit before I go searching.
Thanks in advance!

It’s not straightforward that’s all I know. Best to just measure the track width and the pin distance.

If it's a solid 4-person bench then it will fit. Somewhere around 2011 (not sure of exact year) they split it into two 2-person half-benches. Those mount differently and will not fit onto an older van.
