Stop in rear seat rails??

[JAD]

On my Alphard rear conversion the double seat behind the driver is stops by a square nut in the rails see picture. This means it doesn't come fully forward and you cant lay the seat flat. I'm sure when we brought it we were shown the seats down OK could they have been turned round which I think they do but its a bit of a pain. What do the screws that hold the rails down go into, a nut or can I get it undone from the top? Thanks for any assistance 😉

hi the seats don't completely come forward to have the seats go flat you need to turn the seats round then drop the back of the seat forward

Hello John,

 

Welcome to the Forum.

Thanks Picasso

 

Yes you are right if I turn the seats I can get them both down. Still not sure what the point of the stop is as I think they would both fold down without the need for turning them. Has anyone taken the stop nut out?

 

Thanks for the welcome Roger

 

Cheers

The stop is there to prevent the seat coming to far forward and thus stopping the drivers seat from moving backwards for leg room
