1924 Touring Seat Springs Questions

Post by Valveman24 » Fri Dec 02, 2022 9:21 pm

Howdy! It's been quite some time since I've been on this forum. It's good to be back!

Anyway, the time has come to install a new interior in my '24 Touring. I've been making new wood (not finished yet) and we recently got all new seat springs.

Now how are the back springs held in place? When I removed the old ones they were just kinda sitting there and not attached to anything.

Secondly, how high up are they supposed to be?

The back rest spring attaches to a three clasps screwed to the vertical wood strips, the back spring rests on top of the seat spring. To remove pull the bottom out and lift up. You may find the clasps in your supplies some where, they are very easy to make
