[Healeys] raising the fulcrum point

[Keith Pennell]

If you are referring to a BJ8 I did the seat tilt 30 years ago.  I am 6-2 plus and it made a difference.  The seat top just touches the iteriro quarter panels.  The wood strip beneath the seat frames are 1/4 thick in rear and 3/4 thick in front.Keith

Has anyone tried this mod on a convertible?  Is there enough room to obtain additional lean back without hitting the rear interior side panels?

someone either on this list or FB asked about how I raised the fulcrum point on my seats to lean the seat back and make more room for taller drivers.I realized others may want to see it too. I also had inflatable lumbar supports put into the seat backs when I had them recovered. Adds more arm length and leg room, plus more comfortable to have some lean.Moving to a bigger property next month and will have room for all my toys in one spot.
