Thread: fitting nutserts to your seat base :D

Hi every one,

i noticed some of the nuts were missing off the seat base so i decided to fit nutserts.

all up about an hour and half to drill and fit nutserts and then a trial fit up of the panels before i stripped it off for painting.

feel free to ask any questions

hope it helps

That isnt' for the seat mounts is it They'll just pull through. You need a bolt with a washer to spread the load to stop the bolts pulling through the sheet metal!!

If you want captive, I'd get a length of solid metal strapping, drill the seat mounting holes through it ( using vicegrips or similar to hold the strapping in position inside the box section). Then tack weld some nice big captive nuts to the strapping........ Then using your nutserts to hold hold the strapping in position. That way you would need to tear the entire box section out for the seat mounts to fail.

I'd love a nutsert tool .... Where did you get that one from

seeya,
