swivel seats continue...
In my quest for a 3rd 'front' row seat (views!) I wanted one that folds flat. I thought removable but they are so heavy...
I bought a stow and go 3rd row car seat that folds flat. Then looked for a swivel. Shocked at the prices for one for a car, the boat ones and other inexpensive ones a little too flimsy. For a base I just ordered a motorcycle scissor jack, looks like perfect size and its only 3 1/2 inches tall when down.
Ordered a swivel from Northern Tool, 100 bucks. Not car rated but the heavy dutiest one I see.
So the seat 125, swivel and base 165, $300. I might remove the screw on the jack and put in a air bag I ordered. As a newbie I am amazed at the seat travel up front on my air seat when we hit dips and bumps. Cant fathom any seat up front not having an air bag, but hey the middle seat is for my 10 yr, old.
In short, a lot of reading and searching and now cobbling something together, Should have bought a used air seat but if this really folds 'flat' well I will post photos and be happy! (My bus door is NOT upfront, so this is a nice hang area. My other front seats swivel to desk tables behind them).
SO MANY decisions in doing a bus, might as well be a house renovation!
