I never would have guessed the rear seat front leg hold down tabs were reproduced!
 

Some of you may be in the same situation as me... when I got my blazer, they included the rear seat.... but it was laying in a field rotting away. While it had the arm rest brackets, the rear brackets and the front angle "legs" it did NOT have the little hold down brackets that held the front legs.

A blind search online led me to these little brackets, which appear to be reproductions of the front hold downs for these blazer rear seats....

I dont know how "available" they are, but here is the part number

Goodmark GMK4173517691P

I got mine from Rockauto coming now, but hopefully with that part number you can find some for your project if your missing these!

Google search got me these links

Yes - been out for awhile. The aftermarket version appears identical to the stock part from what I have seen. Curious to hear your feedback though once you get them as I have never had one in my had to compare.

The price for people selling these hold down brackets dropped considerably a few years ago after you could pick them up at places like rock auto...

Nice find, I didn't even know these existed. My bench just sits with rear bolts only and I was thinking that it looks a little flimsy and now I know why!

OK, I got my bracket, but my seat is not back together yet (brackets are in the sand blaster, seat is sitting in a long line at the upholstery shop) but I will come back and report one worthwhile note... ONE order of part# Goodmark GMK4173517691P is for one PAIR of brackets.

Anyone want to buy a die set that punches these out on a press ?

I just bought a pair...they look good and the fit is exact...keep in mind the factory holes (at least on my K/5)......are 7/16-14 not 1/2-13 threads like the rear hold downs....
