Hi all,
About a month ago early one morning late for work I cross threaded one of the front seat bolts.
Even worse is that the captive nut behind fell off as well.
Two problems:
I cannot for the life of me source a bolt or nut or tap/die to match the size of Nissans fine thread and odd sized seat mounting bolt. I've tried all sorts, any ideas please? Failing that I'll have to change the bolt and have an odd one
Has anyone got a clever idea on fixing my captive bolt? I have a few ideas.
One, cut back of the seat mounting frame to allow access, re-weld in new nut, weld back in my access hatch.
Weld a nut to the back of a plate, and then weld this to the face of the sub frame.
Please never make the same mistake as me
