6 extra inches of legroom

installed 2 steel flat bars that are 2" wide x 3/16" thick in the original seat mounts and moved the seat back 6" and remounted it. this is just a test fit, i still want to get some supports welded under the bar to prevent sagging over time, also going to paint them to prevent rust. the front of the seat sits up about 3/4" but feels fine. i can shim the back if i ever want to level it out. total cost for the steel bars was $30 and i can remove it and put it back to stock in 20 minutes.
