Default Rocking Chair

Car - 1987 Standard Seat, electric w/ out lumbar (I think, or it doesn't work)

I took my seat out tonight to get a better angle at a few things and do some detailing, and when I put it back in, it rocks like crazy.

The rails are rock-solid, it seems to be the seat/rail connection. I was too tired to work on it anymore, so I called it a night. But I'll be pulling the seat tomorrow to try to fix it.

Any hints before I start? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure Juliet's 87 does this. Mine does, but is rather minimal.

Dang! ...and I thought this thread was going to be about how you turn Corvette seats into rocking chairs :D . I have a spare set in good condition out in the shed and was wondering what I was going to do with them :yesnod: :)

Canyon, I have a spare driver electric unit if you want it... square plug type. Don"t know if it works but its worth a try... email, lets hook up.
