I need to modify the ends of my dodge buddy bucket seat frame. Does anyone have the mesurements so that I can reproduce the end bracket of a chevy seat frame?

Or do you have a seat frame for sale?

Thanks...

Mike

First pic is mine, second is what I need...

nice job. did you go with 1/8"?

Ilike 72"s · 12-03-2008, 11:48 PM

Yes. 1/8 steel. I'm ready for the price of steel to drop like fuel and scrap prices did. I have $31.00 in steel in the two.

msgross · 12-03-2008, 11:50 PM

I figured about $40 in steel...

Ilike 72"s · 12-03-2008, 11:55 PM

Center bracket?? Do you mean the strap the other side of the seat bolts to? It sits on top of the tube frame?
