[QUOTE="Daryl, post: 1526913, member: 24538"] I was under the car yesterday. The bolts that run thru the floor pan don’t have nuts on them that secure them to the subframe connectors phalange, surprisingly. So I thought, he’ll the front nuts are off , I’ll just use a bottle jack to pop them up and free up the seat so I can yank it out. Got it jacked up about 1”, took a look and there a square, very flat nut between the subframe connector phalange and the floor pan. Looks like the seat bolt is screwed thru it and definitely no chance of twisting that bitch out of there. Seems like the only way Ford let’s you remove the rearward seat bolts is from inside with the seat completely forward. If that’s the case, I’m pretty much screwed unless there’s a way to either move the seat forward (a release of some sort?) without power or dismantle the seat somehow (remove seat track from seat?). Maybe I’ll try the bottle jack trick again. And if I can find/borrow a second one, use the both simultaneously, see if that pops the bastard loose or if it just separates the phalange from the floorboard and doesn’t actually pop the seat bolt through.
