    I would like to see some photos of the seat base/mounts for a M38a1, with the 15 gal seat tank.

    I am at the point of needing to fabricate mounts for BestTop high back seats for my Jeep, and there were no seats or mounts at all with it, so I have nothing to go on.

    Thanks in advance :D

    M38a1 tanks are 13 gallons. My cap leaks so I can only get 10 gallons in there.
    For seat mounts. Search Google images. Plenty of pictures.

    These are from my '53 M38a1, is this what you're looking for?

    Jack, those help a lot, thanks for posting them.

    I did find a few good shots on Google, as Scott suggested, seems like these are totally useless to my needs with the BestTop seats.

    At least I now know where the stock base mounts to.

    On to the fabrication :D
