How to remove rear seatbacks?
 

...from the center pivots? The outside attachments look straight forward enough and I assume the carpet behind the seatbacks would slide out from beneath the rear tray. But, the two center pivots have me perplexed. :confused:

If it's the same as my 71, there is a single screw holding the outside hinge in place. The center hinge simply slips over a shaft. Once the outer screw is removed, the seatback just slides off the center shaft. I just removed mine about an hour ago. The carpet is nailed to the wood backer board for the seatback.

Tip for the day: use a VERY wide-bladed screwdriver to remove the screw!!! The screw head is soft and strips easily. Don't ask me how I know this. Part number for the screw is 900.236.001.02 - hopefully they are still available. -- Curt
