$90 at the website. Wow. Not what I remember when I bought mine years ago. Manual seats anyone?

 

[Malleus]

Who rebuilds passenger seats?

I did the gamiviti ones and a week later the driver side was jacked up again so I've been thinking about ordering the brass ones off eBay.

The passenger side still works with the gamiviti ones.

That's for 6 gears and 2 caps. Enough gears for 3 trucks.

FWIW, you want the nylon gear as the "fuse" for these as opposed to the motor or some other NLA part.

As has been said numerous times, the primary reason for seat gear failure is the 28+ year old grease that Toyota used has now turned to glue. You have to take the time to clean out all the old glue and replace the top washer that has now turned into a unknown, sticky substance, and lubricate with white lithium grease. A standard garden hose gasket works for the top washer, once you snip off the ears.
This takes considerably more time than just replacing the gear, but it fixes the issue.

I just put the Gamiviti gear in my truck and it worked great!
