I have a 99 Silverado ext. cab. The issue i am having is that the front seats slid a little when i stop. It is not much like a 1/4 of on inch, but it is really pissing me off. I checked the tracks and noting is wrong with them, i also checked the bolts they seem to be tight. I was thinking of taking them out to look at them more, but it has a wierd shape for the bolts what tool do i need to use on this. Any suggestion would be great. Thanks for the help.

 

anyone?????????? I can't believe i am the only one to have this problem???? If so that is wierd.

 

go to a Chevy dealer and ask them.. maybe there's a recall or something....

 

I checked there is no recall and they took one look at it and said i don't know what is wrong with it, but we can order you new front seats for like 2,000. I told them no thanks on that.

 

I've seen this problem on many different cars. Not sure what the fix would be though. There's obviously some play in the track system and it probably needs to be somehow tightened.

 

So does anyone know how to tighten it?

 

I'd pull the seats, check and make sure the brackets are tightly secured to the seat fram and then make sure the tensioning spring is all gravy. If you post up a pick of the bolt I'd like to see it. I haven't seen one that is "wierd"

 

it is probally a torq head bolt. probally size 55
