Message	My driver's seat was crooked and tilted ever since I bought the Z. Previous owners must of jacked it up from the wrong area as I had to pound the floor flat too which still left the seat crooked. One day, I hit a bump and the whole seat drops 3 inches. I take the seat apart and I find this. Entire rear side broke off. Find out that it was repaired once by an amateur welder burning holes in the metal. More bad repairs on the other side Tried to repair it myself and it doesn't last Other areas of the frame weakened and broke Bought used seat and its broken in the same place. Got it welded at a muffler shop for $5. This repair should last longer than the first. I drove the car for 8 years before it broke on me the first time with the poor repair. Check this area of you have a crooked seat. 2 out 2 seats I have had this problem.
