I just bought a 1954 M38A1, and the seat that came with it were just sitting in it. I went to bolt the driver side down and it wont clear the fuel tank. I been doing some looking and what I can tell they are not M38A1 seats but more like CJ2A seats. Here is some pics anyone know what they are out of? http://s12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t=100_1069.jpg

The pass seat looks correct, you need the little cast hinge brackets. The drivers looks ok, cant really tell from the photo, the left front leg should rest in the door opening.

I can't identify those. Maybe M38 (not A1)?

I know I am missing the cast hinges for the pass side. But the drivers side seat frame is sitting on the fuel tank and there is about an inch between the floor and the seat. I took some more pics. http://s12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t=100_1081.jpg

Edit: the left leg rest on the floor not the door opening....
