Default Creaking driver's seat

I'm OK with the rocking and sliding seat...I've learned to live with it. The creaking noise coming from the lower left side of the seat every time I move in it or drive over even a mild bump is driving me crazy

Yes, I realize the best fix is to buy a new $eat...but don't have it in the budget!

If anyone has ideas on what to check...or has solved the problem...please let me know. I have removed the seat several times to visually inspect...but found nothing that appeared unusual. I am getting ready to remove the seat cover to look deeper!

This is no help to you but, if it makes you feel better, my driver seat creaks from the upper left side everytime I move in it. I just try to ignore it because I don't want to take the time to try to deal with it, just to end up having the same creak when I'm done.
