I finally got around to working on my rear seat, have been wanting to be able to remove it easily and adjust the position so that the plastic box I keep behind it could be opened without opening the tailgate (it barely fits between the seat and tailgate).
Not done yet but it holds the seat and slides now. I plan to put a locking drawer under the seat, and put a bar welded between the 2 L-track fittings so that I can pull up from one spot because its kinda a pain to pull up on the 2 spring loaded parts while pushing/pulling the seat. Also will probably cut off the original "legs" the seat is mounted on and bend some 3/4" pipe to mount it farther out giving more open space underneath the seat.
The middle track isn't being used but I put it there for mounting seatbelts and whatever else I may need it for.
It works and slides pretty good. I took off the spring loaded pieces that lock the fitting in place on the front ones for now and just have them on the back. I had to push it pretty hard through the track a few times to wear the track a bit to make it work better, and I also ground down the fittings a little bit. I think this is because I bought some crappy track off of ebay. If I had known that northern tool sells it Id have just bought the L track there. I bought some smaller pieces there and it is a lot better.
