You can find already modified nylon washer kits online that will make the repair go faster.
Google can be your friend:

Put seat all the way back and push with your feet and bump control a couple more times and it won't move back and fourth. That will not fix it but will make it less annoying until you get it fixed.

A number of vendors here on the forum sell kits to fix the rocking seat problem. Good luck with the repair.
