they should bolt on i'm assuming
even if they dont its not hard, i installed 05 ranger seats in a 98 ranger and all you have to do is replace the brackets if they dont line up

Should work just fine - good choice BTW. The 85/86 GT sport articulating seats are my favorite

86 seats are just a different style with head rest specific to pre 87 cars.
