Re: Seat is done! I need a tilt!! more pics
Thanks for the comments! The pic makes it look closer to the seat than it really is. As far as the tilt goes, I would need a manual tilt column, you know the ones I'm talking about, they're as rare as hen's teeth. LOL.
bw4sale, I did the seat myself, I took the center passenger springs from a donor seat and replaced about 12 springs on the driver side. Installed 4 of the end spring replacements that LMC sells. I lined the back of both cushions with burlap...used the 3M upholstery glue, and then added a 1" piece of super dense foam on the top side of the seat cushion..used the same glue on that piece as well. That really made a nice firm seat. I can post pics later. Also used an old article from Classic Trucks as a reference.
