Finally fixed the DD busted Hippity Hoppity gangsta lean/rocking chair driver seat with a couple washers @ 03:00 Sunday morning in 27deg weather, if that explains how annoyed I was. FIXED F YEAH!!!!

Idea came from this smart SOB

Jesus, I need to do the same thing on mine. I broke it a few weeks ago while I was on a crazy incline and I have been too busy with other items to fix it.

Was yours gangster-leaning to the passenger's side of the car? I think my frame is torn in the exact same way as yours is too

I might need to get off my *** finally and get some washers tomorrow because I am finally sick of leaning to the right constantly. What size was the bolt, if you remember (in case mine is missing).

I could always just grab a few random sizes from Ace, one is bound to work.

So it is located front left driver., it would lean to the right yes... Probably the exact same spot as mine was. I used to jam a cut 2X4 under the seat next to the console to keep the seat level That got old real fast. So it's a stud from the track to the frame. The nut is a 1/2 or 13mm. You can weld it or just grab a bigger diameter nut or washer. I hope my lift will be this much fun to do. (Gangster is ok Gangsta is no good)

That's the first thing I had to fix on my Cherokee too. My frame and my power seat adjuster were both broken, the seat frame was broken in two places. I don't have access to welder took in to Banish on Lake Lansing rd. Great welders if you need anything welded.
