Anyways, back to the OP. I like the idea but those wood brackets are dangerous. Spend the $20 on the materials to make steel mounts.

 

I have had a couple people tell me that, I will set aside cash from my next pay check and get that done, thanks for the heads up

 

And completely redesign the mounting so that it mounts to the study part of the floor instead of the flimsy part that keeps crap from rolling around.

 

it looks like theirs almost zero leg room. is that just the pic?

 

thats just the picture, there is an okay amount of leg room

 

Less leg room than the stock seat.

 

Its about the same

 

With everything being said, I think it's a pretty sweet mod for $30!

 

Poor guy. Pretty much everyone pooped on his "captain chairs". He used wood cause he wanted them to float!

 

Awwww I was upset when I read captains chair and it turns out to be outa a cavalier.bummer.thos are jus buckets on boards.im all for scrapped up mods but it has to serve a purpose beside killing ur passengers lol

 

lol

 

Culd always nail a few boards to the side for armrests? Lol

 

I did end up fixing the wood supports they are now made out of metal and secured properly and safely.

what all you failed to realize is there are no good write ups on captains chairs so i did what i could out of the materials i had, thanks for beating up on my write up i really appreciate you help.

 

I think you did a decent job except the wood. It took an idea, time, and motivation to do it yourself. At least you are working on a project you enjoy.

That all being said, if you think this is bad maybe you should post this mod on Pirate. It will make you feel alot better about the reactions from cherokeeforum.

 

Don't worry on here you paint your vents and you get praised and told how good of a job you did but you try to do a write up on something new to help people who are trying the same thing, and instead of help you get bashed! I plan on putting "bucket" seats in mine somehow when it's done
