CONFIRM YOUR FORD EXPLORER SEAT CONFIGURATION
Your Ford Explorer can come with several seat setups depending on year and trim. Here’s how to identify your configuration before ordering:
- Are your seats separated? If yes, you likely have bucket seats or captain’s chairs.
- Bucket seats: Separate driver and passenger seats, usually with a center console.
- Captain’s chairs: Similar to buckets but likely no center console and often have fold-down armrests.
- Do your seats stretch across the cab? If yes, you likely have a bench seat.
- Full bench seats: A single seat with one solid piece for your seat bottom and set back spanning the cab.
- 60/40 or 40/60 bench seats: A bench with two pieces for the seat bottom and two pieces for the seat back. One side is bigger (60) and one side is smaller (40).
- 40/20/40 bench seats: A bench with three pieces for the seat bottom and three pieces for the seat back. The two outside sections are bigger (40) and the one inside section is narrow (20). The narrow center section often folds or lifts for storage.
