    After a few hours of searching this site, and looking at several pictures still attached to old posts, I am still looking for picture(s) of early 60/40 driver seat frame. I found Howard's comparison picture, but hard to see the early seat frame/brackets. Any suggestions?

    F Bill,
    Thanks for the reply. I say early seats since mine has springs, not foam. Bubba installed adjuster sliders on my seat and I need to see what he destroyed doing it.
    Maybe someone will advise if your picture is of an early seat.

    That looks right to me for the 60% early frame, same as my drivers side but wider.

    What is it you're trying to accomplish with the pics? Repair your bubbized seats?

    Howard,
    Yes, I would like to make the seat look original. There are pictures of what I have in my album:

    http://www.earlycj5.com/forums/album.php?albumid=577

    Not only did Bubba modify for sliders, he cut the door sill mount off. I need to determine if I have mixed model seats - early passenger and later driver?


    Thanks for your help.



    All info is appreciated.
    Bruce

    JonVO20 - the album has been deleted. Would you have it saved so you could email it to me?

    Hopefully this picture will help. For reference, the bar going out of the top of the picture is the one that bolts to the body at the driver's side door.
