MRAP Troop Carrier Seat Install

[StackJ]

I liked the fact that these seats had five-point harnesses so I thought I would buy a pair. I don't know if I would recommend them based on the difficulty of installing them but I like what I am seeing as an end result. I believe the truck will be safer, have better rollover protection, and I think they're kind of cool.

I did not post this in the What I did today post due to search value...

I put this in Google docs because it is shared in a couple of other places as well.

Nice! Looks Like Gives a lot more leg room. I have several of those seats for sale if you know anyone looking.

Nice write up! All ways wondered how I'd mount that kind of seat. Thx

Yeah, noticed I made that error after I posted it. Thanks!

Pretty sick! So does the seat take any jolt out of bumpy terrain?

In a word, yes. I put the springs on the seat posts for that reason. I am still going to have to change out the springs to something with more coils. The ones I purchased are long and then I cut them down. I will have to experiment. Unfortunately, I don't have the specs on them. Bought them at Bolts4U. They barely fit but seem to have a high compression rating.

Another thing I found is that the thing is quieter. Not sure why. Perhaps because I bolted to the floor, etc.
