This listing is for 16 Old School Seat Track Repair Bushings (correct, as pictured).

 

This kit repairs a total of 4 seats! (16 Seat Track Bushings!)

 

GM used the same style seat track bushings for many years. If your seat slides forward when braking and also slides back when accelerating, then this kit will fix the unwanted sliding from front to rear without having to replace the entire seat track. A new seat track from the dealer is about $600 dollars, and a used seat track will likely have the same issue.

Picture 1 & 2 show the 16 Old School Seat Track Repair Bushings included in the listing - all other pieces shown in the other pictures are for display purposes only and NOT included.


Picture 3 shows the Seat Track and Screw Assembly. Note the masking tape that marks the thread location, the tape is applied before doing any work, this is done to ensure proper reassembly. We never remove the masking tape until all work is complete and the screw assembly is greased/ready to reinstall into the seat track.


Picture 4 shows a close up of the missing OEM rubber bushings. This is source of the unwanted seat track sliding. These two parts (aluminum block housing and black spacer) should be cleaned very good, a pick works good for the corners. Note the top of the black spacer has a bevel and needs to be reinstalled facing upward. Basically, all parts should be reinstalled as they were when removed, use a sharpie or some sort of marking device if necessary.


Picture 5 shows the removed screw and block assembly. We show here a cleaned up block assembly, the screw assembly, and two of the modified New Nylon Bushings (after grinding on the grinder or a belt sander). Note: the masking tape is still attached to the screw drive until reinstalling back into the track (please remove the masking tape prior to install). Also lubricate the screw assembly and block spacer before installing. We like using Lithium grease.


Picture 6 shows a flat piece of sand paper (80 grit) that is used to decrease the width (thickness) for a snug fit into the block assembly. We don't advise getting the New Nylon Bushing so tight that it is difficult to slide in. We like a pretty snug fit using WD40 and a very light tap from a small hammer or other tool. If the bushings are forced in too tight, then it is difficult to line up the new bushings and screw in the screw assembly.


Picture 7 shows a completed block assembly that has been packed with new bushings. We like to use a big center punch to align the center of the bushings and block spacer so the screw assembly screws on easily.


We consider this job pretty straight forward and not very difficult. You guys can save some big bucks and get this done right!
