Seat riser washers

So I have been fiddling with my seatbox pretty extensively these past few weeks and discovered I am missing what appears to be a spacer between the seat rails and and the seatbox.

Can everyone confirm what appears to be a 3/8" washer spacer below the rails? I have been having a bitch of a time removing the seatbox lid covers.

yup, been all over this myself. Just ordered a few from the dealer. You need part number 4075l. Im still looking for a few nut plates if you come across them in your search. Dont want to convert to the newer style rivnuts.

RN has them too.

Bingo, couldn't locate the PN on any of the LR workshop diagrams but that is most certainly it!

I will let you know regarding nut plates, not sure what is on my seatbox but I am pretty sure its non-standard.

Also, silly question, but I think my seats are actually mounted in the wrong holes. Can anyone snap a photo of their seat rail mounting points? Feels like my seats are actually too far inboard if you get my drift...

Look for rivet holes for the nutplates

Do you have an early seatbox? Up until a certain point, seats had two bolts for each foot, later and current types just have one. If swapping newer seats into an older truck, I?d be willing to be the ideal placement is between the two existing holes...

Yes and you can use whichever holes you prefer. I think most use the inboard ones to increase shoulder room.
