Here is another new product
one of our suppliers has just released! More of a hard core racing
product, this seat bracket solves the problem of how to mount Kirkey
aluminum racing seats. No need to fab up any brackets, just bolt
in and go! One less headache when modifying your G-Body for all
out racing.
We are
completing our first production run of aluminum racing seat brackets.
These brackets are designed to bolt directly into the seat slide
bracket mounting studs of all G body cars.
They are made out of .125 thick 5052-H32 aluminum for superior
strength.
These
brackets have provisions to be bolted into the OEM studs (on the floor)
in three different positions. Seats
are mounted by bolting directly through the sides of these brackets.
Bolting the aluminum seats through the side bolsters and seat
bracket is the most effective way to mount an aluminum Kirkey seat.
This method places the seat to the bracket in shear, which is the
strongest way to mount the aluminum Kirkey seats.
The
design allows for more position adjustability than the factory seat
slides allow. For example
the seat can be mounted further forward, rearward, lower, or higher than
the factory seat. Attached are some photos of these brackets.
For
installation place the brackets into the car.
Bolt them down. Then
place the seat into the bracket. Determine if the seat brackets needs
moved forward or rearward. Adjust
if necessary. The seat can
be moved all over, forward, rearward, up, down to get perfect
positioning for the driver. Once
that perfect position is determined mark the location of the seat to the
bracket. Remove everything.
Then drill holes and bolt the seats to the brackets.
Be
sure to select the proper size brackets for your seats from the drop
down menu. NOTE! We do NOT supply or carry the seats
themselves. Just the seat brackets. Two different size
brackets are available. See below.
