Re: Original Bucket seats installation????

I just assumed the front mounting points see the most stress because of the lever arm being the longest on the top back of the seat. Amplifies with mild acceleration. But braking reduces the load, without the added leverage on the rear braces. And side loads would be negligible I'd think. I'm gonna install a set of these seats someday, would like to horde away a set of braces along with my console!!! I'm really glad you posted this mcbassin - like I said in one of the early posts - I just thought buckets used the same holes as a bench and I didn't even know there WAS bracing for buckets that benches didn't get. Duh.
