My setup is solid.When I tried a Shelby their seat squirmed ( just operating the brake) with only one side locking.My adjuster is directly(parrallel) to the floor so as it is adjusted the heigth doesn't change.I have the fronts lifted 1 1/4" to replicate the original tapered chunks of 2x4. My butt is only raised the heigth of the actual adjuster and a spacer strip of alluminum that is machined to accomadate the mechanism total of about 1 1/4" +or-
The front edge of the plate and adjusters are as far forward as the snaps for seat cushion would allow. and the actual rear of the seat is at or below the top of the adjusters rails.Sturdy has never been a problem.Rremember that I'm a heavey equipment mechanic.Sometimes I have to say it's good enough ,it isn't a bulldozer.
