If you saw the post, I swapped to a set of Fiero seat tracks and saw a nice improvement in headroom. The Fiero tracks make the seat sit exactly 1" lower, but it FEELS like a lot more than that. I would strongly recommend this easy, bolt-in swap to anyone.

Being greedy, I want more. I'm looking at having the rear of the seat brackets dropped a little lower by cutting the mounting tab off and fabricating one that sits essentially flat on the floor, then welding it back on. I'm not sure if this will work, however, as it may leave the slider dragging on the carpet. There's only another 1/2 to 3/4" there, max, anyway. We'll see.

Another thing I've considered is mounting the seat further back on the slider. I still think it may be possible, but I'm wondering if the seat slider could be taken apart, another notch or two cut into the sides of it and whatever the stop is modified to let the seat slide another 1/2-1" further back.

Problem is, I have no idea how to take it apart and don't want to screw the slider up by trying to get it apart till I know more. There's clearly a hard stop in there which stops the slider from moving forward and back past a certain point, but I can't for the life of me figure out how it works.

Does anyone know anything about this?

 

anyone?

 

After I got my APc seats in, I took mine apart for the hell of it. I basically had to pry the living hell out of the roller ball/bearing between the riser and slider. Basically, rom what I saw, once you take it apart, theres no going back

 

go get a junkyard seat.... and practice on it.... see if u can do what u want to do.... and then put it back together

 

that's what i was agraid of
