Help with leaning seat

[mwolfe1969]

I have a 87 T that was a cop car. The problem is the seat leans to the back and right. It is a power seat, what is wrong, is the power track bent or is it the upper frame, any help would be great. Thanks, Mike

most likely upper frame .... ummm I use to be kinda BIG and would do the same thing to the seat .. I would put the top of the seat down and crush it against the bottom .. hey I said I was BIG at that time .. would take care of it for a while

Have you ever seen what our seat frames look like? Thin tin, it's amazing they all don't sag, I was kind of taken aback with how cheesy seats look with the upholstery off. I can't see a quick fix other than trying to get the metal to twist back like mentioned above.

Thanks for the help, I guess I'll try to bend it back.

It's a heck of a lot better than any of the new cars today. All they are is a metal tube frame with a wire basket to hold the foam.

Some of the 80's era Caddys used aluminum for the frames. To bad the bottom halves are a tad too wide to use in a G-body. Thats some trick light weight race car stuff there.
