Has anyone else had problems with the square nut on the back of the bracket that holds the back seat(the part you seat on) break off? so now it just spins when I try to tighten down the bolt! it started on one side and now the other side in broke too! its a pain in the @ss to get to!! :gocrazy

it just the part the bolt theads into! It might of been welded! when I went to tighten the the bolt the square nut on the back side started spinning with it! Im going to look at it some more and try to weld it back but its in a tight place!
I was just wondering if this was a common problem..i guess not!
One of mine broke loose as well - I just got a friend to help me - one of use held the nut up in there with fingertips, while to other got it started, then we squeezed a set of needle nose vice grips in there to hold it. You have to have an extra set of hands, and both working from opposite sides, and both have to push back on the seat foam to hold the seat out of the way to get in there. A little patience, alot of cussing, and you'll get it (have a cold one handy as a reward to keep you focused).
