: Did you try to copy the sliding seat?

Shawn,

I did make a copy, but I got the seat too high and it was completely unstable. You can't imagine how dissapointed I was after my first attempt. I borrowed a seat from a real Max and that worked fine. But, I was unable to buy one and reworking mine would have been a major problem so I now have a foam seat with back brace. It works fine and I plan to stay with no rear hatch or bulkheads.
