Front seat swap for a 77FC31 - bascom1968 - 01-28-2006 16:09 Our seats have been replaced once and are not the strong point of the coach. Had the drivers out today and worked on the foam to correct a list to the right. I would appreciate hearing from others who have replaced their seats. What works? Are there tricks to make it easier? I used the handle from a floor jack and some 2X4s to lever the seat from the socket today. Does any of your front seats have room to swivel completely around? Do you know a source for seats? We live within driving distance of Colaws RV Salvage (largest in US they say) and found some there, but kind of pricey. Thanks for any information.

Sometimes they have great deals on that site.

I grabbed the seats and belts for $60.00 - just had to clean a few spots and they look like new. They were a direct bolt-on to the existing pedestal. While I was at it, I changed the position of the seat slide control cylinder so its under the front of the seat instead of the rear - that way I can reach the manual control lever while seated and move the seat without being a contortionist.
