bench seat track parts?
 

i glanced through the vendor section here looking for a seat track parts.

are parts available for the bench seat sliders anywhere?

all i need is a spring and a spring keeper for the right side lock mechanism.

Not that I know if, but you can make the small tab part that holds the spring on and find a spring at a hardware store. If you have one side that is complete, the other side is exactly like it.

Or you can check out the parts board and pick a seat track set up from there.

i seen the latches was exactly the same, i wondered if they were supposed to be the same part. the spring looks ez enough, the keeper may take some time to make.
i may have found one since i posted this here, i thought it would be like looking for the needle in a hay stack.

Thanks!

I have a set of tracks that you can part out. I will sell you for 35.00 shipped.

I looked for a spring keeper for awhile, finally gave up and posted a wanted ad here in the classifieds and one of our outstanding members sent one to me for free. It's nice to have a restored seat, with all the proper working parts.

Do you still have the seat track? If so I would be interested in purchasing them.

that ad is a couple years old.
I sold my 72.

FYI, the latches (track lock) are not the same on both sides. slightly different.

Here's the one I made for my front bench. (bottom one). No special tools, just some 1/4 plate, cut off wheel, a drill and a file. I didn't have the pull rod either, so I just used some 1/8" braided cable.
