1971 C10 with bench seat question (seat adjustment) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 71 C10 and have pulled the seat out to change out the seatbelts. The rod that connects the driver's side slider release mechanism to the passengers side mechanism is not connected to anything. I looked at the passenger side and the connection there is pretty obvious, but everything else is a little off.

I've attached some pictures to help. I also found a loose spring about 1/2" in diameter and 1.5" long floating around below the seat, but don't know if this is part of the mechanism or not.

The basic question is: How is the linkage rod supposed to connect to the driver's side mechanism?
