I don't know about the seats but the base and tracks look just like big truck air ride bases. Do they have an air bag in them?

No no airbags just a little spring in a shock.

I know mastercraft and a few others make suspension seats for the off-road market. Might want to check their websight, maybe 4 wheel hardware and some other suppliers.

It all looks like a factory option nothing looks hacked together. Everything looks like it belongs there.

Pretty sure the factory never offered that.

Those are stock seats from a first Gen s10 with a whole bunch of randomness to mount them.

The shape is similar, but those aren't S10 seats. Not GM at all.

They look like aftermarket seats to me. Notice the professional looking floor brackets with the correct contour to match the floor.

Considering you could take some flat stock and do that and then weld it on... That doesn't look professional at all. Those two welds look pretty amateurish.

Heck you can even see the original rusty hole.

Except that's not just flat stock, it's die cut. I do agree about those two little welds though, something is fishy there. The seats may not match those brackets, but they are both aftermarket production parts.
