C3 Seat Adjuster Differences

[Alger R.]

Didn't realize that my four C3 (1975) seat adjusters are different from each other? The A.I.M. manual shows four different part no's. I just finished re-upholstering my seats and don't have a clue on which adjuster goes where? I know that the right side of each seat has the adjuster arm and the left side of each seat is the "slave" adjuster. The mounting brackets on the slave adjusters are different from each other and the mounting brackets on the adjustment arm adjusters are different from each other. The difference seems to be mainly in the height of the floor mounting brackets. Any help out there?

If you lay the seat tracks in position on the carpet before you install them on the seats you will find they only fit one way. I just put new seat covers on a 75 and found the tracks are not like other years.

Thanks Lyle. I set them in place and it was evident as to their correct position. I also noticed that the outside adjusters (Dr's Lt & Pass Rt) have the higher brackets. This is most likely because of seat belt clearances.

Problem solved, thanks, AL
