passenger seat repair
#1

the arms on our passenger seat were about to fall off.  several years ago when i was at steve bares, we took the seat apart and put the metal brackets on one set of wood supports.  ends up the front was totaly broken and pulled in about 4 inches.  

so i took most of the upholstery off and with large clamps i pulled it in place and glued and screwed brackets and such to make it back to normal.  then i put more wood brackets to hold the arms in place vertically.  it is very strong now.  

then i reupholstered it all back together this morning.  

i am going to have the small table that is under the passenger picture window corian top cut down so it doesnt stick out so far and hit the back of the passenger seat.  i found a corian guy who will do it in place for 100 bucks....

    Hey Tom, just ran across this old post of yours.  My passenger seat has same problems plus many more: footrest doesn't extend, one arm collapsed, lopsided overall.  And time to replace the leather.  Is there a shop in Phoenix that you would recommend?    Or maybe I should just replace the seat!

If it's an electric footrest try first to clean off the old grease on the screw rod and lube it with new grease. Also check the wires and voltages.
