typically the seats in a car mount differently than that of a truck you may want to try unbolting the tracks form the frame and build a new frame to fit your bronco thats what i had to do to switch a set of buckets into my truck it should take too long if your got the tools.

I put a set of Mustang bucket seats in my 79 Bronco. I just changed the frame part. The bolt holes matched right up.
There is do, or do not, there is no try.

I'd imagine most seats would bolt in, so long as you used the original metal mounting frame and tracks.
