    Strap yourself in, get it up to about 15/20 mph, hold the release lever and stamp on the breaks.:thumbsup:

    Have a look underneath and see if its operating and moving the stopper. It could be broke!

    If you mean you can't physically get the seat past the steering wheel then yes its tight, juggle it from side to side.

    Like Toppop2 said, get some penetrating oil on the runners. If that doesn't work try 35/40 mph;)

    Get a drift/block and hit the top portion of the runner backwards, just a sharp knock to break the seal. It's probably just seized together.
     
  17. super glue ?
     
  18. so do I try to inject the oil into the runners?

    just spray or pour it all along. I suppose it might be tight passenger side as you have the double seat.

    Lift the double seat out.
