so here's the deal, my seat no longer moves foward or back, (maybe its off track or something)so i want to take out the seat anyway to change the tracks but i can reach the back bolts. so, i was wondering where can i take the car to get the bolts unscrewed from under the car.any help appreciated.

You can't get to them with a wrench?

use a smaller wrench or a buddy with smaller hands.

You could also unbolt the front bolts and bend the seat backwards carefully and get the rears from the front.

Another hate'n troll bites the dust.

Alex aka SmallBlock Speeder aka 351SVO aka tTOP302 aka SHO@lex aka SHOalex. Long time CAFords troll and hater trying to start drama as usual. A picture of this over achiever. Now go and cry to your homeboys about how you were banned because of discrimination and racism, forgetting to mention your five trolling accounts on here :rolleyes:


A big plastic monkey pointing a finger at your little shriveled pecker? Seriously?


Wow. Just wow. And we thought the monkey pic was bad!

Does your boyfriend know you're cheating on him with the shirtless guy above?

Anyone else with a fake account care to speak up?


Didn't think so.

can you hear the motor trying to run when the switch is pressed either way ?
The swiches are prone to bad connections and failures.
Also if you can hear the motor running and just hear clicking the plastic gears inside the screw rods are broken (damn plastic gears)
If you dont hear anything when the switch is pressed make sure you have power (you can reach from back and unplug connector and check for power.
If not you are stuck having to get a wrench in there for the rear bolts. If you can get them to turn 1-2 times you can get a set of vise grips on the bolt bottoms and get them out about 90% of the way. and finish with wrench again.

Good luck !!
