Is there an adjustment for a loose seat back?

The seat backs on my manual sport seats rock forward and backwards too much. I've looked at the hook that releases the seat to fold forward and there doesn't appear to be any wear, but there's too much clearance. Any suggestions?

I'd rather not modify anything due to the safety issue and there's really nothing to bend. If there's no adjustment, I need to find a way to take up the clearance. I'm leaning toward adding a little weld metal to tab. I think that would be safer than drilling and tapping for a little bolt.

I'm going to the Astro's game so my early afternoon is pretty much shot. Will you be around in the morning?

How about one evening this week.....since we missed each other this morning? You got my #'s in your phone right? Call me and we'll figure out a time. Like I said, it shouldn't take but a few minutes to knock out.
