Hey thanks Quadzero. Labor or love if there ever was one. I only had a half day yesterday so I wanted to get my seats situated in the cab. I found out that I could only use one of the four existing holes for each seat bracket. So I made some large stout washers out of 1/8 steel.
I welded up the old holes in the floor and marked and drilled new ones.
I dropped by fastenel and got some weld nuts and dry mounted the seats with bolts slightly loose. Then welded up the bolts and nuts.
Not the prettiest arrangement in the world, but my welding is getting better with each project.
In a couple of spots i was able to use the existing factory holes. Just needed to weld in new nuts.
This is my second set of gloves. While grinding it seemed like the sparks were getting hotter. Then to my surprise, found my gloves almost became part of my hand. Guess I'll be using the leather gloves from here on out.
