Ford Galaxy Swivel Captain Seats

Post by peteinnit »

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has fitted these to their T25. I have a couple and they would be an easy install, only they sit too high, so wondering if anyone has any luck lowering them to fit better. I've had a look underneath and can't see anything obvious, so any ideas would be welcome.

Cheers, Pete

Hi
Guess its a bit late but I've fitted two Galaxy re-furbed swivel seats in my T25.
Have to say its a bit of a fabrication job no matter what anyone may suggest !
I had to cut out the seat rails and weld in 2" square angle to reform the wheel arches. You'll also have to bin the 2 fuel expansion tanks and fabricate new ones. Mine use one of the new seat bolt fixings to attatch to.
This mod lowers the seats by ~2" and if I we're really really critical I'd say they could do with being another 1" lower but this simply isnt possible as the seat base would catch if you rotated them.
Have to say I'm 99.9% happy with my conversion and they look pretty fine I think.

Cheers
