    Theres 2 in the front , 2 in the back, and where your seat belts attach to seat frame, and your air line if you have one.. And if your bolts just keep turnin, you'll have to get under the cab and use vice grips on the huck nuts... not a big project

    Well .. the bottom (under yer ###) flips up and can be unbolted with i belive a 10mm socket, the arm rests have a spring clip and will pop out once released, once the bottom of seat is off remaning bolts for seat back will be visible, they bolt to the sliding frame, under fabric and unbolt seat belts ...... Iho its just as easy to remove the whole seat and take it to the shop to get redone, plus that way they can also make adjustments on say a loose seat frame (common on older factory pete seats)... Either way shouldnt have to many problems... good luck
