    Rear Seats on a SWB

    Hi guys

    not sure if this is the right thread but im sure i will be re directed if not .

    anyway i was wondering if anyone had moved the rear fold down seats back in the SWB as to provide a little more leg room for the poor souls that get chucked in the back. if not is there anything that i would need to comply with or take note of when doing this

    many thanks

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    It is now official, we are not quite so sh@t at cricket as we were! Rugby Union is a different matter.

    Ok, I've noticed something that may be relevant here.
    I have a '90 SWB Patrol and here is what my rear seat looks like:


    It's a 3? seater, the outboard seats are bloody uncomfortable with the turn-up over the wheel hump.

    I noticed, when I bought my rear glass the supplier had some pics of a shorty and it's rear seat looks like this:



    Much smaller, more a 2 seater. Is this a Patrol / Maverick thing? I can't really tell but the sample car from the glass supplier may be a Ford.
