SS seat mounts that were sectioned to lower the seat. Mounts are shaped to fit the contour of the floor.

Hoop on crossbar with multiple holes on rear seat support for adjustment. When we had the cage redone, the chassis guy (Lucky's Racecars) mocked up the seat on blocks of wood to get the right angle and height with Kevin in the car.

I saw that thread where a gent is producing the superstock seat mounts for $150 per set of 4.Wonder if they would work with the plastic race seats

Scrap metal dealers are good cheap source for aluminum. You could fab a set out of thin gage steel for strength and ease of welding. Drill large holes like the originals and paint them silver... only your hairdresser would know.

just a thought.

$150 for a set of 4 brackets for 2 seats is a good price,just not sure my plastic seats will bolt on

I used stock bucket seat brackets and then plate steel as an adapter between the bracket's bolt pattern and my plastic bucket's bolt pattern.

Hey Al,

I do have some seat brackets being built right now as I talked to you in a PM. I did make a version that is a lower profile bracket for us taller guys too. Looks like we are welding them up this thursday.
