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

Buy a Long Wheel Base ;)

The back seat works great for the young bloke and a swag! Full.

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.
