Re: Technical help needed on 1984 bucket seat tracks

Sorry I dont have any measurements tho-I did this because I didnt want to caveman bend the brackets and have it look goofy...I wanted a factory look.
Okay, I think you have done what I’m needing to do. When you used the bench seat sliders, how did you bolt front of slider to bottom of bucket seat? Did you make a bracket? If you look at my picture with the bench seat sliders mounted to floor, there isn’t anything to bolt the bottom of bucket seat to. That is what I need to fabricate and the measured height to make it right.
