VA Need bucket seat track parts - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

VA72C10 · 11-01-2011, 09:10 PM

Have a couple sets missing the springs and the rods that cross over from one bracket to the next and the pieces the rod attaches to with the springs on both sides. Let me know what you have and prices please. Thanks!

VA72C10 · 11-01-2011, 09:16 PM

Here's what I'm looking for (in red boxes)

HeavyMetalChevy · 11-01-2011, 09:47 PM

will bench brackets work??? I have a TON of those??? I am not knowledgeable on these seats yet... But here I come!!! lol

VA72C10 · 11-01-2011, 09:55 PM

The pieces in the smaller red box I believe are the same....other than that it wouldn't have the same length spring or rod.

VA72C10 · 11-04-2011, 12:21 AM

can you post up some pictures? Thanks!

HeavyMetalChevy · 11-07-2011, 03:47 AM

Here ya go... I have fabricated metal for 10+years as well so I can modify the rods to fit buckets.. .Just give me dimensions and I will bend/roll them spot on buddy..

VA72C10 · 11-07-2011, 03:50 AM

Yep, those are the ones...need the entire piece...the part that looks like a "key" and the spring attached. I'll defintely get you to make some rods up...I'll get some pics and dimensions for you as soon as I get my next set of buckets with a good rod

I have three sets of tracks right now with ZERO rods

HeavyMetalChevy · 11-07-2011, 03:56 AM

Also...do you know or have resources that could tell me if you can modify the top screws on the frame of bench seats to make it fold forward... I am pretty sure I can mock one up..but if someone has done it before...I am all ears..

VA72C10 · 11-07-2011, 03:59 AM

Haven't seen that done on seats that don't come folding from the factory...but good idea!

HeavyMetalChevy · 11-07-2011, 04:02 AM

yeah I can not seem to get my hands on a folder no matter what!!! I'm going to put in work... I got ideas.. lol

Let me figure out which seats I a going to keep and/or scrap... I can send you a pair now though.. But if you got the dimensions I could send the rods too... I will just modify the rod from bench to utilize as much as possible because after that the frame is going to be gar-bino!!! I hate doing it but I know they will inevitably sit... Might as well let someone use what they can.

VA72C10 · 11-08-2011, 04:37 AM

still looking for more hardware (or complete sets of tracks)

VA72C10 · 11-10-2011, 05:39 PM

ttt

HeavyMetalChevy · 11-10-2011, 06:59 PM

As you know...all I have is the springs... I have 3 pair I will part with......what about the rod dimensions??? ye nay??? 40 bucks shipped on 3 sets???

VA72C10 · 11-10-2011, 07:02 PM

I'll get the dimensions tonight...I just got my set of brackets that have one in it in the mail

Is that 40 shipped for the springs w/ the "key shaped" pieces and the rods? If so, I'll take it.

Just for the complete springs... I will have to fab the rods for minimal fee.. Say 20 bucks for all those making 3 complete sets of springs and rods you need...It should take me around hour to cut rods roll and press into dimensions needed.. .so basically just charging labor on those.

**rockc** · 11-10-2011, 09:05 PM

If you are gonna make some rods I would be interested in 10.

so 60 total? That will work. Thanks. I'll draw a quick picture of the rod with dimensions and post late this evening/tomorrow morning when I'm home (at sister in laws right now as they are out shopping

)

VA72C10 · 11-15-2011, 12:49 AM

Here are the pics and the measurement finally...

10 3/4" long. Note how the ends face different directions

HeavyMetalChevy · 11-15-2011, 01:00 AM

I have the springs ready... I will ship those you want them now??? am going to go start fabbing the rods... Let me mock a pair up... Also need the "hook" specs... How long is the "L" hook looks to be about a quarter inch...lol ahh heck with it I just remembered I have some..lol

10 rods or sets... 20 per set.. .They are a little more time consuming then anticipated...

**rockc** · 11-15-2011, 11:37 AM

HeavyMetalChevy · 11-15-2011, 06:21 PM
