NY WTB Buddy buckets sliding hardware driver's side - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**georgieb51** · 11-03-2021, 11:26 PM

I have a set of nice buddy buckets but they came without the sliding hardware on the driver's side . I could use whatever it takes to make that side slide. From what I understand the passenger side never slid? (slided)? Thanks, george

Thanks for responding. I know nothing about how these work or what it would take to get the seat to slide on tracks.Is it possible to adapt a handle from something else? Or make one? Perhaps I should ask if someone else has a photograph of a handle and the spring. But that would be another thread in another part of the forum. Are there more than on spring? Thanks for your help and offer to sell these parts.

Here’s a set ( not for sale ) for comparison. I thought someone was making the handles but not sure who. Hopefully someone can chime in on more information

Thanks atog. Is there some sort of rod that connects both sides? The handle does not look too complicated but when you move the handle on one track what makes the connection to the other track? Thanks, George

Here’s some adjustments rods for sale

**georgieb51** · 11-05-2021, 10:47 PM

Are the rods on the right connecting rods?

Hi George, thanks for the phone call earlier this evening, it's always nice talking trucks and parts. If you click on the below linked "67-68 Buddy Bucket Seat Misc. Hardware" f/s thread, you will find the repro LH seat adjuster track rods listed as item #6 and the OE RH seat mounting brackets listed as item #3 on the list. Have a look and confirm in thread, Mel
