Of all the things I've cussed about on LBC maintenance, I didn't think the seat diaphrams I bought from VB were any big deal to install. (Midget U-joints have been the worst by far.) I used a drum br

Ok, I've got an idea. Has anybody ever tried to fit the steel 'springs' that support the bottoms of most new seats to an MGB seat? I believe that they would be permanent and after replacing the seat

This is a one-person job, provided you can find a way to hold the seat bottom frame securely. The best way is in a vise but I have also seen it done clamped to one of those "Work-Mate" tables. Then

I did it and it was a tough job. It takes a lot of brute force but can be done. I would estimate it took about 1 hour to do one seat. I wasn't able to find any magic solution. You might want to try h

Put the diaphram in the sun for a while to warm it up. (Maybe there's a better way to do that this time of year, although we still have an occassional day in the '60s.) I fastened a couple of the hoo
