Hi Chris, Can you give any more insight into whether the distance between the three supports on the 3-person bench from 2017 and the slots in the 2019 model line up? I couldn't quite figure out what you meant in your post above. I am looking for a bench in my 2021 model for my 3 kids and want to understand if older benches would be compatible with the designated locations of the seat bases in the newer models. Any help you (or others!) can give, much appreciated! Also, in case you happen to know if the old tracks are compatible with newer benches and vice-versa would be great to know!I installed the bench from a 2017 in my 2019 cargo van. the left side lines up with the factory frame rails and the middle comes through just above the drive shaft. The front left corner was a little tight and you have to be super careful to not drill through the gas tank, its a tight fit. I used a steel bar about 1" thick to spread the load out over a wide area. I only used a modified two person bench seat so I don't know exactly where the right mount would come through but that side of the truck has more access and it doesn't seem like it would be a big deal.
The tracks are specific to the seat's generation and are not interchangeable. The floor in the vans are identical between Vs30's and the previous generation, so either tracking system can be used, but unfortunately I cannot say as to whether the different tracks have the same bolt hole dimensions...if you're trying to utilize the hideaway nuts of the crew/pass configurations?Hi Chris, Can you give any more insight into whether the distance between the three supports on the 3-person bench from 2017 and the slots in the 2019 model line up?

Thanks! Thats helpful. I just got a 2014 bench with tracks but wood floor is still in my vehicle, so good to have reassurance on the floor dimensions!

Mine is a 2021 cargo in which we installed a 2018 3 person seat. Just haven't gotten around to reinstalling the wood floor yet
How hard was this? Id love to update to reclining benches from the vs30 in my ncv3. I have a passenger so I already have factory rails. Wasn’t sure if it was just adding one more hole as I know the vs30 rails have 3 holes compared to the ncv3You call install it. I’ve done it the other way around installing vs30 to my moms NCV30. All the bolts works
I did it, simple as removing the VS30 brackets and bolting in the NCV3 brackets.I realize the brackets and seats are different between the two models, but is there any reason I couldn't install the NVC3 brackets in my 2019 Cargo and install an NCV3 seat?
Thanks.
I know this is ancient history, but did you ever do this? Any challenges?How hard was this? Id love to update to reclining benches from the vs30 in my ncv3.
