My 73 Dart Swinger came w/ a bench, not buckets. As a result, the original 4 bolt holes (2 per side) are really far on the edge of the floor pan and are not an option.
I drilled 8 new holes (4 per seat) in the floor and located the seat bracket where I want it. What is the best way to secure the new brackets to the floor board?
I purchased 1/2" grade 8 bolts, nuts and lock washers, but worry that they might pull through the floor board in an accident. I'm thinking about adding some large diameter washers on both sides of where I drilled the floor to give it a greater clamping surface area.
Any better ideas?
