|
|
Hi guys i have fixed my seat with the help of Bruce (Mystery Machine) with the info and photos he sent me which was a great help. well hear gos nothing i will try to explain how i did it
start by undoing the four 14mm nuts that hold the seat to the runners on the floor of the Delica
then remove the seat from the Delica [take great care as the seats do weight quite a lot]
next lay the seat on its back so you can acess the seat base and undo the four 12mm nuts that hold the metal base to the seat
if you now look down the side of the seat you will see two 14mm bolts that hold the seat back to the base remove these
now get some pliers and remove the R pin clip from the release linkage
and remove the R pin clip that is just below were you have taken out the last one
you can now with care pull the seat base down away from the seat
you will now see four bolt around the out side edge of the center turn plate on mine they were 5mm allen key bolts but on bruces jap copies they look like 12mm bolts
slacken off two bolts on one side but do not remove the bolts yet
remove one of the two loose bolts
then you need to lever up the plate that the bolts go through and place a washer under it in the place were you have removed the bolt
then refit the bolt lossely and remove the other bolt and repeat with the washer you can now do up the two bolts that side and repeat the process on the other side of the turn plate you can now in revese order put the seat back together and refit it to the Delica
I hope that this was some help to you all?
And thanks again for all the info Bruce. :D _________________ 1990 Delica exceed riding on 17inch split rims!!!!

Brilliant! Took me just over an hour to sort both seats :D Many thanks for the excellent How-to. Next job - EGR, fingers crossed all goes as well as this job did.

I followed it to the letter but with no success, are you supposed to put more than one washer in each one or what?There's always one |
