Brat Jump Seats

Featured Replies

So, I just picked up an '84 Brat w/ a set of jump seats ready to go. I need to install these things now. Does anyone know offhand what screws and bolts will be required for the install?

 

Thanks

The seats bolt onto a frame. The frame is generally welded into the bed.

I have everything except the actual screws and bolts that are required for the install. I just trying to figure out what screws/bolts (sizes) I need to finish the job.

Was it the brat in the newspaper? That's awesome. It's brat time.:banana: :banana:

Yeah, it's the one from the paper.

The bolts in mine are some special head design, probably meant to pass some D.O.T. restrictions. I am not sure of the size and thread coarseness.

Hmmm mine are just normal 10 mm or 12 mm head bolts.

 

Search through your bolt can I bet you can find some that fit.

 

I am willing to bet they are 1.25 pitch as most subaru bolts seem to be. I think the ones that hold everything together are about 1 inch long at the longest.

Tamperproof Torx, I believe they are a M6 or M8 1.25. I think they are that way to prevent theft.

 

these bolts are used on a lot of things. generally they are used to prevent theft and/or tampering that could result in a liability suit. you can buy the bits at most hardware stores but you might need to order them online like I did if you need the real small head ones
