Seat cushion padding

Been sick of the banging my lower back had been taking with the air ride seat and bumps.

I had to recover my drivers seat so I picked up a twin memory foam matt cover at target for $50.
I am sure they can be found cheaper but I was in a rush. I flipped the seat foam over and cut out a matching
piece of the memory foam (it is 2") to put on top. Recovered the seat and it has been great. I still have the bumps
but no longer have the bone jarring ride. It seem to muffle the shock and is surprisingly comfortable.

I will be recovering the rest of the seats shortly using the same process.

Thanks to bruce (bkubu) for doing most of the work and showing me the easy way to recover the seats
and hooking me up with a new set of canvas [thumbzup]

I recovered my spring seat the other day. I used the seat foam from an old golf cart seat (I have several) and a shelter half supplied the canvas (courtesy of Desert rat). I ended up with a nice, soft, seat for 30 minutes work. Doesn't look bad either! I did the base and the back. I am currently doing the same on the pax spring seat I picked up last week at Howard hammonds.
I'll wait until the rains stop before I go take a picture.
