Well she's ours....

Post by M&M Waites »

:D 2001 24' RB Born Free

Now we just have a few kinks to work on :?

The captains chairs swivel but don't move forward. We found a metal U shaped bar under the sofa that seems to fit under front of chair but it didn't move anything. Any suggestions? Thank you for your help!

Are you talking about the side chairs with the table, or the driver and passenger's seats? If it's the side chairs, do they have slides at the top of the pedestal?

Some photos might help us see what you're seeing.

Pull up on the bar in the front of the seat bottom and scoot the chair forward or backwards.

What John says. ^^^

There should be a bar under the upholstery skirt at the front of the seat.

The bars for the seats are permanently mounted, and aren't detachable. They're on pivot points that release the catches allowing the seat to move. If you found one of those under the couch, likely it was broken off the seat somehow.

HUMMMM..... We only found one, did manage to put it on chair but it didn't move anything. It stuck out about 5" and annoyed me so I had DH remove it. He's working on other things but I'll get him to look at it again. We were hoping they'd recline a little more.

Some photos here of what you've got would be really helpful.
