2016 expedition El xl fleet front jump seat?

[Parkspremier]

hello everyone, I am looking to purchase a 9 passenger vehicle and have found a 2016 expedition Xl fleet vehicle at a dealer. It currently does not have a front console or seat. Will a front center jump seat from an f150 fit? Any info is greatly appreciated.

That would be an SSV model not actually XLT. I am not sure if the middle seat would fit or not.

You would also need to make sure that the mounting bolts are strong enough & you can mount a seat belt. Hate to see your passenger on the news for flying out the windshield seat and all.

Matching leather jump seat out of a 2012 f150 that features the head rest and shoulder belt. All seat belt components are incorporated into the seat. I used a piece of 3/8” steel plate with 3/16” steel reinforced with angle iron in a few places and bolted to the seat using 4- 1/2” bolts and lock washers. The plate is notched in the front to fit the hump in the expeditions floor board and bolted through the factory reinforced mount holes with 1/2” bolts and 2 more 1/2” bolts in the front of the mount through the floor and reinforced underneath.

That looks good. Really good work!
I believe you are the first SSV Ecoboost on here. Would you be able to post pictures of your under carriage?
I am trying to see what the transfer case skid plate looks like on these models.
I have the plate that the dealer swears up and down is the proper plate but I sure can’t figure out where it goes.

Yeah no problem at all, I was impressed with how many skid plates are under this thing! I will try and post some pictures this evening

Whoa, you scored a 3.5L ecoboost SSV???

What's it look like? What kind of grille, what kind of cluster?

And how much did it cost you??

Seat belt is integrated. Mounting bolts could tether an elephant.

Thanks much.
This plate in particular is the one I am trying to figure out where it goes.

Here are a couple outside pics of the one I ended up purchasing. Someone else put quite a bit of money into it ie. Katzkin leather for all seats, kenwood touch screen gps audio unit, alpine DVD player for back seats, leveling kit and wheels tires etc. and less than 36k miles

Great looking rig!!
The SSV audio system but be completely different or the original completely rebuilt and rewired the system.
I have found zero way of integrating an aftermarket unit to the sync system. Without running it as a piggyback system.

I did’t realize the SSV used the older round foglights vs the newer LED bars.
