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

<DIV></DIV>&gt;dood do you have the plastic spacers in there? there are 4 of them. if they
<DIV></DIV>&gt;are missing you will have slop.
