It is all worth it when someone says they were "running hard or at least thought they were" when this 29 went by them like they were standing still.
Makes my day when I hear something like that. Not because it is an ego stroke, but because it lets me know my work goes noticed.
Hell, I guess my work goes noticed even when I don't run. EVERYONE knows when I'm broke down. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

With just the seat back out, it's still a MOFO.

When I had the engines out of my 97' 29, I had
the seat base out, and that made getting to them
easy, but it was a lot of work to get the seat base
out, as I recall.


How did ya get the seat base out?

OOOhhhh, you're taxing my memory...that was
about 10 years ago:D

As I recall, you take out the seat back, ( easy enough to do)
and then, you take out all the fasteners securing the base to
the floor, I believe there were even some screws on the
engine compartment side of the base.

Battery switches and battery boxes had to be dealt with.

We took out the bolsters.

We took out the interior side pieces that the back seat
cup holders are housed in out, then it would come out.

You then, can get right at everything.
