Seat Extenders
« on: April 30, 2013, 01:10:34 AM »
As some of you know, I am 5'22'' tall.  Leg room is a little tight in my Henry J.  This past weekend I resolved the problem.  Out of u channel, I created seat extenders.  They are going to move the seats back 4".  I welded studs to iron.  The original seat framework will now bolt to the studs.  Less leg room in back seat but I can put seat up when I have passengers more than 2.

So some of you don't need to take your socks off to count with your toes, 5'22'' = 6'10''
