I couldn't find any parts or a new riser for my 47 3600, so I decided to build one out of 14ga sheet.

Yeah....It is the only thing I have, and I want to keep a few things the way they were.

One of the reasons I needed a new riser - besides being rusted to death - was the "access" hole that was torch cut in the front of the riser. When I got this truck, all you had to do was lift the seat. That's probably the way I will leave it.

Mine is original, snap in type. When rebuilt with extra padding it weighs a ton and tough to get access. Fwiw over padding raises seat level and so comfortable i have fallen asleep on it (when parked)
