WTB: Seat track spring (for 68 but I am sure other years same)

I am actually looking for TWO different springs for the seat track adjust. These are both missing from my truck.
Aside from used, if anyone knows who might reproduce, please let me know.

Thanks,

Kevin


1) Seat track spring AND retainer. In the photo, the small spring and the retainer (with the hole) that attaches to the rod that goes over to pass. side track release. Noting there is one of these springs/retainers on both driver and passenger side of seat tracks.




2) Seat Track Lever spring (See POST#6, for photo of spring) - Spring that attaches to seat track lever.

Did you ever find the parts needed? #1 The retainer & spring, I found some on eBay. I also have a 68 seat & tracks. I can go out and look at the spring, that your referring to, for #2. Not sure exactly what your needing for that. But here are some pics of the 68 seat that I have.

Thanks for the reply, I have not found the springs yet.
For #2, the spring (again, not shown in my photo) attaches to the seat release lever itself. I do have the large spring shown in your first photo, but there is another spring on the lever (that broke on mine).
I'll grab a photo of the broken spring and add to this post shortly...

Thanks,

Kevin

I went out and looked at mine, there is no other spring. There’s the springs & retainers, those are on both tracks. Then the large spring. The only other thing, is the wire, that goes from one track to the other. I’ll go out and look again to make sure.

Photos of the spring (#2) that I'm looking for. In the photos you sent (post#5, first photo), notice the HOLE in the seat lever, ...that is where one end of the spring attaches.


I 'borrowed' the spring (shown in this photo) from my '68 50th. BOTH trucks had this spring.


Photo of the broken spring (hard to see, but broken on right side of spring coil, I just placed the two pieces next to each other for photo)
