it mounts to the driver side seat adjustment slider key. the rod that connects the driver to passenger slider seat brackets connects to it. and it retains a spring.

Re: bench seat tie rod bracket spring retainer clip thingy

Around here it's tough too find those pieces in the bone yards. Most times the whole track lock assembly can be tough too find.

Make one, a drill motor and assorted bits, a couple files, grinder ect, unless you would have to buy the tools then you could consider Ebay.

Re: bench seat tie rod bracket spring retainer clip thingy

If there's someone with them on Ebay, that's the only place I know. Till I heard that my answer would have been nowhere. I know a truck seat guy, Pete's Seats, and he uses a washer. I'd pay $25 for the correct piece. Does anyone have a link, seller's name, or anything more than "There's a guy on Ebay?"
