Correct, the seat back moves as the seat folds, about 3/4" actually. In the cab, there are two square u-bolt looking deals welded to the rear cab wall, with nylon isolators so they don't squeak.
The bent round stock was the easiest way to replicate that function.

Thanks for the compliments, folks!
