[Healeys] LUMBAR SUPPORT

[Perry]

Listers
You can use a lumbar support that you can buy from office supply retailers.  Wire rim with fabric and an elastic band that holds it on the seat. But it provides adequate support and its easily  removable.

I cut off and welded on a .5" extension to the fulcrum bolt on the seat base and had an inflatable lumbar support added below the seat back material when I had the seats recovered. I also drilled a hole in the seat back sides .5 inch higher, this too increased the set back rake. I am going to put the bolt back in the oem ho;e as the seat back tilts too fart backwards now.

A throw pillow, or a small pillow that acts as a lumbar support covered in a sheep skin made by my wife many years ago has solved most of my back problems when driving the Healey.  Her side has one also.  Real sheep wool breaths much better than fabric.  When I am driving again, am hoping the fittings on the hinge of the back causing a tilt will provide additional help.
