Where would I start looking for seat parts? Im only looking for the sitting area fabric of the drivers seat and the foam underneath and a little direction. The back of the drivers seat and passenger and rear seats are near perfect and look great. Ideally Id like to pull the fabric and foam and redo it myself instead of taking it to an upholstery shop or getting something 20 years old at a junk yard. Thanks for any help!

I don't know what year yours is, but I pulled the fabric off a '95 seat and whoa ! way more complicated than once upon a time. I was kind of surprised at how complicated they made all the attachment points. No way would I even attempt to put that back on a seat.
Unless you're real familiar with them I'd suggest you might be better shopping for a good one or taking yours to a shop. Or finding another one cheap and have it recovered if you can't have your truck down for a while.

Its my fun truck and its a 94 with buckets. So maybe I will have someone fix it. Its in such good shape for a 94 F150 XLT 4x4. I have to get it fixed. The seat, 2 window motors and somehow that freakn cruise control without spending a lot of $$$ and this thing will go to hell and back and then some without having a ton in it. Another good thing it only has 97k on it!

Low mileage XLT, probably not rusty from Carolina. Worth going to an upholstery shop.

I just wish the wifie (finance minister) would look it at that way. This is one nice 94! All she sees is an "old truck"................

Yea I've looked around for the factory upholstery. Shops in my area can only kinda match it. May just have the entire truck upholstered in a simulated leather. It looks good on the bucket seats.

I would like to do the whole truck but no funds for that at the moment! With the "finance minister" hovering over me I cant buy a 50 cent light bulb without flack!

Haha I understand. Then the only thing I can think of is getting some type of upholstery that will go good with the truck, not necessary match the material in it though, just adding another color. Do that to both bucket seats to keep things symmetrical and like it should be that way. I've been thinking of that for my truck, because other than a tear on the bottom of the drivers seat and the driver seat foam being worn out, the upholstery is in great shape.

SMS auto fabric still makes upholstery for these trucks.
(503) 263-3535 is their phone number. They sell the upholstery by the yard.

I bought my 95 Supercab a few months ago. The interior color is Lapis Blue. The drivers seat cushion was pretty saggy, the upholstery was not in the best shape, either.

I took it to a local upholstery shop, they had the exact fabric.

They built up the seat, recovered the bottom and replaced the release lever - I took them a replacement and since they had to remove the existing one anyway, replaced it with the one I provided.

Total with tax was around $285.

The only issue I have now is that I realize just how much the rest of the upholstery is faded, but I would do it again in a heart beat.
