Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i need some help i want to put some after market seats into my mq just wondering if any one has any pics of how they have mounted theirs

as i noticed when i unbolted the seats from the rails that one side is spaced up with spacers (is this common?)

Heath

milk crate and 2 roofing screws

hey mate i will get u a pic of my sports seats mounted up.

used the standard rails but chopped them up other wise the seats sit so high u hit the roof!!.

will do 2moro.

looks like my jag seats will fit onto patrol bases and will be nice and low.

also comfy

thanks man did you get them from the lawnton auto barn... that makes life a whole lot easier

in only 5"9 and i have my seat as low as i can possibly get it in my MQ, else my head hits the roof offroad and my legs get very bruised from the stearing wheel...

i plan to put race seats in soon and mod the bracket to get lower...


altho i do like to be able to look down on the other 4WDers....

try and see the ground on the left hand side of your car when driving a tight track especially when you are passenger side down wards on a side slope.
then you will realise lowering tour seat aint such a good idea

can u use the original mq seating set up but just bolt on the aftermarket rails to them?????

i cant see the ground on the left hand side in my stock seating, i cant ever see it if im steering with my feet and trying to hang my head out the passenger window... i would need a complex system of mirrors set up to do such a task, its just not possible!!!


anyway, thats what unsuspecting passengers are for!

well turns out that saas no longer do as benno says they stopped making them according to the guy at auto barn so back to the drawing boards it is
Heath

still waiting on how ppl have mounted their after market seats

do like what we were doing with the seats in my bluey, before i realised the buggers are still too high up
