I had a rear seat with a bent support arm and after fiddling with it trying to straighten it… I realized the metal was just too thin and I didn’t feel safe putting my kids in this.
Also I want to be able to fit a Bluetooth powered sound bar under this rear seat so I can leave my dash uncut with a stock radio.
The best sound bar out there in my opinion is made by JBL and it was too big to fit my existing stock seat. ( I had to make a funky bracket for it to bolt to but it won’t be noticeable once the cushions are back in place.)
I retained the back and arm rest support frames but everything below that is heavy duty metal (pic to compare).
Luckily I had all these pieces of scrap metal available and everything is very heavy duty now. I widened the angle iron that bolts to the floor of the bronco all the way out to the extreme width. So now I can bolt through the floor and also laterally into the wheel wells.
I still need to finish welding it in place (it’s just tacked up right now) and then it will be powder coated and my stock cushions will go back on.
