Re: [Chrysler300] Front Seat Comfort

[Michael Moore <mmoore8425@xxxxxxx>]

My H had small (1 inch or so) wooden  blocks under the front of the runners to tilt it back slightly.

Does anyone else find the seat position in their Letter Car (particularly the '57 C)to be uncomfortable for long rides? I don't have a power seat in my C, so that may be at least part of the problem, but I doubt that's it entirely.

I'm not that much above average height, but I wish my seat was tilted back a bit, sat just a little higher, and traveled a couple of inches further back. As it is, I get virtually no thigh support as my knees are up in the air when my seat is adjusted all the way back.

I have designed a pair of mount adapters to reposition the seat in a way that I think will likely be very helpful, but I wonder if someone else already has developed a fix. I haven't yet machined them, but just before I do, I thought I'd better ask first. I certainly don't want to be reinventing the wheel.

Am I the only one who doesn't like the factory positioning? Is this a manual seat issue only? Has it been previously addressed? Are other years a problem too?

Thanks for your input.
