1969 Bronco rear seat

Hello everyone. Just acquired a 69 Bronco. Everything looks ok and getting ready to start to redo the interior. PO gave me the rear seat assembly and I see the bottom angled brackets need to be replaced. They are so rotten, I can’t measure the old ones. The rust ate away the bottoms. Could someone please measure their bottom brackets for me. I need the heights of the front, the height of the back and need the length. Thank you, Ted.

W E L C O M E !!!

measure down so it fits between the wheel wells, yet just above. Simple 'L' or 'C' shaped (I 4get right now) sheet.
These whole things can B made up totally frm scratch.
I just came up w/what wrked 4 that specific piece. Nothing needs perfection here.

I guess most of us - when pullin a seat outta the back of a junk yard find - hadda recreate this piece... Water came in, they sat in it, & all rusted @ the same place (least that's what I found 30 yrs ago). I recut the plywood, just bought foam'n covers in the last 10 yrs, and stripped/re-painted the metal. Only thing orig is the bent metal tube frame...

Good Luck, let us know how U do!

Well thank you. The tubing is ok, it’s just the seat risers are shot. Trying to get the height close as possible to factory specs. I just need the front and back heights and also the length.
