Hey All, I was wondering if anyone could give me a hint on what I should do to remove my Power Bucket Seat... The right rear bolt seems to be covered by the track and the motor is bad and I cannot move it out of the way to get at the bolt?... Any helpful hints!?... Thanks, Tom
I have done this several times. If you can remove the cable, get an old speedo cable and cut the sleeve short. You can then chuck one end into a cordless drill and hold the other end into the pinion gear box to drive the track. If you don't have an old speedo cable, get an Allen wrench the size of the drive cable and do it by hand. Will take forever but it will move. While you are at it, I would strongly suggest you get a 1/2 and 9/16 box end ratchet pair. These have an open end wrench on one end and a box ratchet on the other. I got mine from Ace Hardware and I think Autozone carries them now. Only 5 degrees of movement make them click/ratchet. Well worth the money. You can get the 1/2 on the screw/nut and go at it.
Thanks George! I guess I should have just called you. Thanks! and yes, I do have those box end ratchets and did use them on the other bolts on the seats with great success. Thanks, Tom
How to remove the bucket seats in my car ? It's probably a dumb question and i'm more than impatient since the car is still store for winter , but I'll probably have to took them out of the car in order to have the backseat (all 3 pieces) re-dye in the coming weeks . Do I have to unbolt the floor bolts or the track only ? I should have wait to look closely how it's work before .. sorry I hope to have any hints and if there's some thing not to do or pay attention of . Thank you for your time .
Just remove the three 1/2" hex head nuts and one 1/2" hex head screw holding the tracks to the floor.
