Replacing seat

BDKR · 09-13-2006, 02:16 PM

I'm putting in this seat, or at least working on it. I have an extra OEM 240 seat slider that I'm working on mating to the bottom of this seat. Just wanted to hear what some others have done.

Cheers

It's in the car. I just used an OEM slider assembly and some right angle steel. It's in and nice and the old busted up one will be in a landfill on Monday.

BDKR whats that seat out of?

It's a custom aftermarket seat by Smittybilt. It's actually for the all the Jeep / mud bogger / rock crawler type peeps. Even has a surface you can hose off.

I picked it up from somebody for like 50 bucks. The adjuster didn't work. I just used some imagination, an angle grinder, dremmel, and a huge ass washer. Everything works now.

I'm most likely going to replace both front seats later in time if this car remains my daily driver.

Finished product. Being the the stock slider assembly, all I had to do after this point was bolt it into the car.
