Or possibly the runners have seized. Try sitting in the back with the seat tilted forward & give them a good push with your feet??

They slide backwards and forwards fine......in fact they slide backwards right off the runners and come loose....but they definitely don't tilt...

I reckon someone stuck some four dor seats in it when they bobbed it now y'know

Dan...it's a two door / two seat SUV dude......doesn't have a back seat...(unless you call sitting on the petrol tank the back seat!!)

Thanks P4203...I'll think about that but I am seriously considering buckets and harnesses and getting serious (mailny due to ending up with sprog AND dog on my lap around Hawes last week over a bump!!)

Problem I have with all of this y'see is a mahooosive petrol tank just inside the tail gate...meaning all tools / recovery gear etc all go behind the seats...which is a reet ass to get at...

quick release tilting buckets is my ultimate plan.....mmmmmmmmmmmmm

Martin, did you get the seats sorted?
Never had any probs with my old 2 door, pop round if you like and I'll have a look, tell you if they are the same or someone's b*gg*r*d them.

99.99999999 % convinced they are four door seats Frank as there are no levers anywhere on them....

Am I right in thinking that due to laws of physics / stress / tension whatever, that tilting seats would not have built in seatbelts ?

Seatbelts in mine are attached entirely within the seat...which would surely fold up and assist in flattening oneself in a crash

Where are you located...will see if I can escape enough to pop round sometime soon......

Cheers
