recline mechenism

it seems that the reclining mech on my driverside seat in my trans am is broke. its layed most the way back and no matter what,it wont stay up. is there any way to fix it, can it be an easy fix at all (spring maybe?)?

I've never heard of a fix--but I haven't heard everything. At any rate, the bone yards are full of them.

Re: recline mechenism

Sounds weird, but mine was full of coins.... check for change and remove lol. Worked fine after getting almost a dollar out of the recline mechanism area.
