Hi all

While digging into the nitty gritty details of my Otter rebuild I realized there was some minute differences in early CMP seat production.

The early seats used a somewhat flimsy style of slider mechanism and a cast lever compared to the later style that was much more robust.

Anyway one of the minor differences is between the Ford and the GM lever for the seat adjuster.

GM used the following part numbers.

5800156 Lever, Seat Adjusting
5800694 Lever, Seat Adjusting (pictured)

Ford used ( don’t have a Ford parts manual.

C01Q-786463 (pictured)

What’s interesting is they are essentially the same cast lever except the Ford one had a larger end.
