Stealthmodes Random Fabricator/Engineering Challenge
 
I can usually figure out a way to engineer things to work, but I'm stumped on this one and I'm not sure if my first thought will be the best thought.

Problem- Mounting seats with sliders in the way of the bolt holes on seats. Receiver holes on seats much too close to fabric to direct weld. (Alll pictures are of the same side)

The problem with the proposed idea is that it's going to throw the height of the tab and bolt head on one side, and it will need to be compensated for on the other side. And then you have me just thinking there's an easier way to do it if I just contacted some smart people.

Washers and weld abolt to the tab and screw the tab on the seat first then weld up :6

It Will raise seat up the same thickness as the tab and use the washers on the others


Make sence

Also grind the head off the bolt


You would have to do 2 tabs on the side with the e-brake for each seat

I suck at describing things

The shuttle better be running 7's by 2009

here is how i did mine...

hope it gives you some ideas, best of luck. I used welding gloves and put then under where i was welding to protect carpet

Then I can't slide them forward to let the neighborhood kids swing on the bars. O0


I'm starting to think it'd be easier to do another strip of steal across the front two seat bolts and the back two seat bolts, bolt them to the seats and then figure out how to bolt the steel strips of the seats to the steel strips of the brackets.

Not sure jb weld will hold the seats in when I hit the wall.
