Re: Installation of IPD Seat Web Grid 200 1988

Russell-

I bought the seat grid as well, and when I pulled the seat out and turned it over, turned out that one spring was actually broken and the grid was fine. Incredible what the difference of replacing one spring made!! But anyway......

Having a helper would make the job much easier. You need to have a lot of leverage. Find the biggest pair of pliers you can muster. Get someone to hold the seat against a wall (on the floor or on a table) or something that's not going to give when you pull with all your might using the big honkin' pliers. Make sure you have a REALLY good hold on the hook of that spring or that little sucker will fly so far you'll never find it, and of course make sure that you and your helper take precautions in case one flies away. Hope this helps!
