Drivers side seat runners, 87 SJ410 Santana

Post by Fatboy 18 » Sat Nov 24, 2012 3:13 pm

Looking for advice or a diagram or picture of how the stock drivers side seat runners are supposed to work?

The drivers seat runner next to the transmission tunnel had snapped in half and the seat runner on the other side of the seat (the one with the adjuster lever) seems to have no spring on the adjuster lever. You can just flip the arm and the seat will slide forward and back no problem, so hitting the brakes the seat would slide forward and accelerating the seat would slide back! :er:

I can get the broken seat runner welded up ok but i'm sure there should be some sort of spring to hold the adjuster lever in the locked position?

Thanks.

Anyone know if there is a pdf parts file for a SJ410 Santana 1987 ?

This is the best I can do, photo's nicked off ebay and stitched together (if you see the slight misalignment ;) )

I think I have some runners knocking about in the garage, will have a look later, you are pretty close to me so if you want them you are more than welcome to have them.
