- Just put my new seat tracks in (tr-3) and tightened them down but sliding the seat on was a chore. I also find they don't slide back and forth very well at all. I'm slightly disappointed but think ov

- Yup, that's been my experience with both old and new tracks. One of the issues appears to be that the tracks don't wind up parallel, on both the floor and the seat. I haven't found a good solution,

- I just put new seat tracks in my TR3 and they slide quite easily. In fact they seem a little too loose and I've adjusted the seat mounting to tighten them up a bit. Do the individual tracks slide OK
