...just looking at a few pictures of used seats for sale on eBay the bracket design/styles on the 2 don't even look close.

The seats from the heavy duty rams might fit as it shares the same cab.

Was there ever a definitive answer on this?

Thought I read somewhere the classics with a particular package had the 5 gen seats. Think my classic express with bucket seats has them. Let me see if I can snap a pic.

Sorry I have seat covers. The pattern is show on new rams I believe. Know it’s not definitive but maybe you have a chance.

While the 5th gen HD 2500 seats will bolt up, the connectors, wiring and modules are different/not directly compatible with a 4th gen.

If you want a chance at getting seats to work currently in 13-18/classic 4th gen, get 13-18/classic 4th gen seats.

So it will fit perfect! Just need the seats with that bar you grab to slide back and forth.

I have 2017 1500 2WD Std Cab Tradesman Express(= Ram Classic now). I added Katzkin leather to my two front seats, arm rest box etc...

I bought an 2022 2500 Tradesman with vinyl seats because I'd measured the bolt pattern and they will swap... I did realize later that the wiring harnesses do not match. Neither have heated seats. The connectors and wiring loom for the airbags/weight sensors etc... are different. So ... no swap. I don't want to unsleeve the old leather, I'll just keep them as they are.

Your answer is in your question.

Are the 5th gen hd seats power portion still operated seperately from the bcm? I started a thread of my own a while back with converting manual to power seats that i never ended up finishing. Now that i have some cash to throw at the project i was able to find a 5th gen hd limited seat. I don't care about the cooled function or leather. I am only using the frame and the motors. All the wiring, airbag, cushions and covering will be used from my old seat.
