The guy I bought em from said it's a easy bolt up but when I took the bench out I didn't see nothing easy.. guy please help me..

    1984-85 vans did not have an option for captain's chairs.

    You might consider tracking down a 2nd generation ('86-'89) Van. The LEs did have the captain's chair option (but not cargo nor DLX, so bolt-up may not be possible at those trim levels). You'd get more power with an 2nd gen van, too (2.2L vs 2.0)
