Daniel,

Trying to remember the seat floor mounting set up, but instead of using the
spacer bar, couldn't you just do away with them and use some nylon washers
under the individual mounting bolts?  An old trick for more leg room is to
put more spacers under the front of the seat, tipping it back, and suddenly
... more leg room.
