<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>hey all,</DIV>
<DIV>this weekend i bought some swivel seat base plates for my 87 westy.&nbsp; the plates came from an 85 westy.&nbsp; i already have the main base plate installed in my van, you know the one that is tack welded in place.&nbsp; anyways i cleaned up the swivel plates and regreased them. i installed them and slid my captain chairs in place.&nbsp; well, there is a good 1/2 inch play in the swivel from side to side.&nbsp; is this normal?&nbsp; even with the seat off you can feel all the play in the bases from side to side and up and down.&nbsp; the base is totally tight.&nbsp; i greased them with bearing grease.&nbsp; is there supposed to be another piece for the chair to ride on.&nbsp; everything else seems fine just too much play.&nbsp; what should i check for or is this normal.</DIV>
