Thanks, Garrett...yes, I will be adding a brace on the back of the seat...and having a beer!
Wade, I was planning on one of the Lakewood bolt-on loops that would span between my subframe connectors.

Thanks, Johnny....they're the economy drag seats, 20 degree layback, 17.5" width.

Well, tonight was the big fire up. Almost 11 years in the making, as you can see in the video I have a big s***-eating grin.
