I just looked at mine it looks as if you bolt the seat into the cab floor. I reached underneath and there is a box directly underneath where the seats bolt so there is NO WAY to get a nut on the bottom of the cab floor.

what year is your bronco, mine is a 74, I don't have a box blocking the undercarage, what I can't rember does the passenger seat not only fold in half but does it flip foward the front mounts are hinged, that is why I was thinking the back mounts were just studs and not bolted down, I would apperciate a reply as to what your does. Thanks jats

mine is a 66. my passanger seat is bolted in the front only, the back part of the seat has metal framing that is about 1inch by 1.5inches that acts as the support, laying against the floor. it folds and tumbles, with the help of a hinge system nothing complicated, just the metal framing bolted to the floor and a tab with a bolt through it mounted solid to the seat I looked on the rear of the seat and it looks as if the weight of the passenger keeps the seat "down" but no studs.

the box I'm taking about looks like its some sort of support for strength nothing "hacked" in or added.

mine bronco is 95% original only missing the bumpers, fiberglass doors, front turn signal, cigarette lighter... little stuff

Originally, all EBs had either a front bench seat or a fold and tumble pass seat. The front mounts on the pass are the same type of stud bolts used on the driver & rear seats, meaning there should be a welded nut or a boxed nut on the bottom of the floor board where the stud hole is. The rear mounts on the pass seat should be on the door side a bump stop of some sort on the seat and on the interior side, a latch that has a simple flipper that locks onto an angled bracket bolted to the bed floor.

Thanks for the info, that helps I think I'am going to put studs to match up with the back bracket holes, might make it a bit more stable (stop it from coming foward under hard brake) thanks again jats
