Whats involved in moving the drivers seat track back an inch or two? Can you just remove the track screws and shift it back a set of holes, or maybe drill new holes through the floor pan? I guess drilling new holes in the track might be more prudent. Seems like my last '92 C2 was already moved back - I'm 6'-2" and a couple of inches back would be significant - straighter legs & arms. Lots of threads years back...... TIA!

You can move the seat another inch or two further back.

The seat rails are welded to the floor. They have several holes in them. There are threaded metal blocks that you can adjust inside the rail. After you remove the seat, move the blocks as far back as possible. Do the rear first, followed by the front.

A word of caution - the seat bolts have the strength of cheddar cheese. They can strip very easily.

Good luck!

Now, that's the most insulting strength comparison I've ever heard of...

...against cheddar cheese.

Truth. It's more like cottage cheese.

And you're not even from Wisconsin! I first thought of Emmentaler but figured some of our European friends might be offended. Can't get it right these days, just can't get it right...

You're right you can't get it right as proper Cheddar cheese (not that horrible processed excuse-for-a-cheese that you get on your McDonalds) is from Cheddar, which is in Somerset, England!

911URGE,

Many thanks for posting that document! It made moving the seat back a piece of cake.

(Note: for the 3mm washer which is needed to support the inside most rail in the rear, I simply snagged one of the washers which held a long since removed fore-to-aft A/C hose in my '84. Glad I saved the old hardware.)

Now to go see if I can reasonably fit.....

Hope its enough space.

Yum, now I'm hungry for some Wisconsin Cheddar!

911Urge,

Definitely an improvement I would say. It was very easy to do and I would recommend it to any of the drivers out there with longer legs. My legs are no longer jammed up against the dashboard and center console. Shifting as well as clutch action is not as awkward. While I still need to keep my legs v'd to get at the steering column controls, it's not as bad and it seems fine for average driving. I am going to fore go any major modifications to the seat rails like I did in my '84 as that was quite involved.
