seat mounts to cages (pic request)

Boonie Buster · Jun 4, 2009

I want to start working on a cage soon, and my (for me) biggest hurdle in my head is how to mount my corbeau SS with sliders to a cage. Should I even try to use the sliders? Or just hard mount the seats, I know that would be the sturdiest and safest, but i like the adjustability.

Anyone (crash, I know i talked to you about this a while back...) have any pics or visual suggestions for me on how to mount them up?!:corn:

Thanks,
Aaron

i don't have any pics but i have SS with sliders, and i plan on using my sliders, do you already have a place to mount the seats(tubes through your cab) to and you are just unsure of how to mount them?

i'm getting ready (sort of) to build the cage, bbut i also want to see how people integrate them into the cage...

i put two bars of 1 1/2" DOM across the chassis then ran four square tubes fore and aft to mount the actual seats to. the square tubes have multiple seat locations built into them. i dont have sliders but want adjustability at least in the driver seat.

This is in a Cj 5 there is no room for adjustment but you get the Idea.

I might have to do what hip or PUO did. I jsut dont want my head rubbing on the roof, I had bought some adapter brackets for the Corbeau Ultra's i have and i just got done emailing a complaint to corbeau about the fact they fit like garbage, and that my head hits the roof when they're "installed" :looser: i'm going to throw the bench back in tonight to get a reference feel for height again and go from there.
