WTB: Drivers seat release 97 Extra cab

[billk2002]

I'm looking for the seat hinge for the drivers seat on a 1997 extra cab. I need the piece that is on the outer side of the seat that includes the release lever for the seat back. It's held on with four 10 MM bolts and I could also use one of the Torx head bolts if you have one.

If I remember correctly the parts that you are looking for MAY have been covered by a recall. It might be worth contacting a ford dealer to check if there are any outstanding recalls. I remember doing seat latch recalls on rangers and explorers but I cannot recall which years were covered. The bolt will be included also. I believe they replaced the torx bolts with ones that had 13 mm heads.

Thanks for the post, the parts manager I deal had the same thought and checked, it does not apply. It is the same part on a 2 door explorer.
