Can u show how ur mounting those front seats. I have a pair of those with the original brackets. But wondering how hard it would be to put on my project 87 MC. Thanks
simple,turn them over and measure 14" from center to center on the underside of the newer mc seats(or 1/4 inch in from the outer edge)mark and drill new holes.check fitment of gbody tracks,you will use existing bolts,spacer.you will only need to get 12 washers to use,3 underneath each factory washer/spacer,and one under the bottom of the track where it bolts to the bottom of the mc seat.track,bolt,spacer,3 washers,track,washer,bolt to seat :wink: did i see you at the pomona swap meet? i could have sworn i seen that lux in your avatar,but it had irocs,and a female was driving?
