BOGO racing buckets

[canadianwheeler]

I find it pretty interesting,everybody bought into this,and yet very little feedback now!Doesn't surprise me though!

With family and jobs they aint much time anymore to wrench.

I'm gonna re-design and lower some. Need a little time to fabricate got to work some this weekend.

I am gonna try some manual sliders. From what i read they are 1-1.5 inches lower. On the power seat brackets its almost impossible to get in and out.

When is the sale done?

 

[TomMcD]

The original sale was until March 31st, but if you follow the link it shows to be still, or again on sale as a BOGO.

I re-did adaptor for seats to get as much head room as possible without having to significantly modifying the original seat supports and frame. The only modification to the seat frame was to grind off the bolt/studs which pressed into the new seat when I fit the seat to the frame. Pictures follow.

Notice I had to heat and bend the strap to level and fit them onto the seat. I bent the strap to get about 1" of extra clearance and head room, which put the frame right up next to the seat bottom.

Here they are in the Cherokee. Even with the mod head room is not optimal but for me it's OK. Any long tall drink of water may muss their hair on the head liner though. I'm going to leave them this way for now, the nice thing is I can change it later if I don't like it.

Tally Ho,

Do u find it difficult to get in and out?

 

[2lazy2p]

not if you dive in head first. I'm 6'0" 230 seats are somewhat snug, incentive to lose weight, but they are not uncomfortable.

WOW.. I am only 5,10 and 205 and have a hell of a time getting in and out using your first design seat bracket.

I did too with the first design, thats why I changed it, better now. Nice but not essential for electric power seats. The seats wrap snuggly around my fat arse, I may need to widen them later if I don't shrink a little. I like the seats though.

I have to take my wallet out of my pocket,but other than that they are pretty comfortable.

I'm 6' 3" and 200 lbs and these seats are snug, but they are racing seats. I like the height, it reminds me of my 2004 rubicon. You sit up height and can see over the hood.
