RustyRodder Posted September 4 Posted September 4 Hey all, I just finished reupholstering my comanches bench seat and found the backrests latch on one side broke. Is this bolt that i could extract and replace? Or a stud i could weld something onto? Or is the frame trash?
Pete M Posted September 4 Posted September 4 is that on the back part? if you don't have headrests, I'd seek out a rear/back frame unit that does and use that if you're anywhere near atlanta, I can help with that.
RustyRodder Posted September 4 Author Posted September 4 Nope, the base. I investigated a bit more after work(did that on my lunch break. Pun no intended)- was a bolt! Anyone know a source of a new one?

Pete M Posted September 5 Posted September 5 I might have a spare around here somewhere. I'll go on the hunt tomorrow.
Spinnakerblue89 Posted September 5 Posted September 5 If it doesn't need to be exact, look for bolts with deep shoulders. Not every hardware store will have that sort of thing, but online retailers may.
