    Rear seat update

     



    I'm still working on this rear seat installation. I'm glad I'm doing it now rather than after the paint work is done!

    I ran into a few snags along the way, which is to be expected. First, I had to modify the floor pan under the seat a little because of where my rear sway bar attaches to the frame there was no clearance for the long bolt & bushings. I formed some pieces of 16 gauge steel then cut out that portion of the old floor and welded in the new. Yes, I know the welds aren't too pretty but they'll be covered up with sound deadener and the seats!

    Then I had to fabricate some mounts for the seat frame and the seat belt receivers. I also added some support to the center of the seat frame so I could get rid of that stack of wood in the previous pics.

    I still have some things to figure out on the back of the seat plus the best way to mount the seat belts but it's coming along.....ever so slowly.....
