The front bench has had a bit of movement and squeak with it since I drove the truck home last year. Finally had enough of the wobbling and decided to deal with it. As I put the 9/16 socket on the first of the 4 seat bolts, I sensed I was headed down a bit of a rabbit hole.
Took the seat out - simple fix, the track was loose on the seat base. No broken springs in the seat base either.
Now seemed like a great time to clean under the seat and scrub the floor mat. I started with it in the truck, but ended up taking the door thresholds and shifter boot off and taking the mat out for a scrub and rinse.
I tried not to, but I had to at least peak under the jute sound deadening pads...Now I’ve got a coat of rust converter drying and will probably spend a few evenings this week painting it and redoing the seam sealer at the A pillar on each side. Amazon order for some foil deadener is set.
Some surface rust wasn’t really a surprise, super glad there aren’t any holes.
