hey
what does the seat base/runners mount on to, looking at the chassis plans and pictures of chassis i cant tell how they mount as there is no bars going through the seat area do they just bolt to the steel plate that is rivited to the bottom. any help would be appreciated |

Here's what I did...
kitcarkid,
the mounting of the seat/seat runners is not covered at all in 'the book', as you have noted, so we have all come up with different/similar solutions. Here's what I did: * 2 bits of left-over 19 x 19 each side between outer rail and tunnel rail * Small plates on the top (so as I don't have to pierce the floor for the seat runner fastenings) It will raise the seat marginally higher that Adrian's suggestion.

Seat mounts are best done using flat plate as it keeps the seats as low as possible for IVA when they do the seat belt height check doodah thing.
Also if you use box section you will be required to have crush tubes through the box section where you bolt the seat runners through. It's a safety thing as well as good engineering practise. |
