Default NE1 replaced the plastic bushing in your

pedestal seats? I have the original seats and had a bushing fall apart yesterday. Now I have floppy seat. Sad part was the boat was in my driveway. Never made it to the lake because it hasn't stopped raining for two weeks now.

Thanks,
Maury

I would think yer not the 1st to have that sleeve wear out...the MFGR should have replacements available...who made? ... original equip or after-market? Just went thru West new catalog seat sec and nothing there ... you might try Cabelas ... let us know ;) ...

I need to. Boaters World has them hanging on the wall by the seats. Saw them last night. Also checked some new shades and a battery charger for the boat. Gotta feeling I'll be back there reel soon ;D

They're on the website also. I'll measure my pedestals tonight to make sure they'll fit.

Thanks,
Maury

Measure them closely, it seems every manufacturer has a little different size.

Flonder, Did mine last year. West Marine, boatersworld, or any boating supply should have them. There are a couple of different thicknesses. Cost about $5.00 Crusher

You must have caught the half price sale. $10 - $12 everywhere I've looked, including West and BW. Still better that floppy seat though!
