Wire-3 Fitted For Wireless Box details

Looking around the Hammond barn today I found a seat riser similar to the one in the photo above. Bob states it came from David Moore following his F8 project. As shown it fits neatly under the cab 11/12 style seats. A photo of the seat (but not the riser) in Bob's C15A cab11 is included for comparison.

Hi Grant

Thanks for the photos. If possible could you provide the distance between the front and back holes for the surface that would be against the floor? I'm curious to see if this design would be close.

I measured the center to center for the bolts holding the riser to the floor as 9-3/4 left to-right and 14-3/4 front to back. (assuming the higher edge of the riser is the front).

Grant, thanks for the measurments. I just went and checked on the box floor. Front to back it is 17-1/4". And side to side for the rear two holes is 11". The front hole is offset to the right of the left hole by 8".

Found the following in the C15a Illustrated Parts Manual.

Anyone know what would have been meant by the seat less trim?

Also, why a specific part number for the terminal strip? Anyone have one with a matching part #?

Jordan. I think the seat less trim is just the steel frame and Spring assembly, with no cushion, padding or canvas cover.

Another unknown I have come across. On the bottom side of the 2J3 box frame work is a set of holes along the one main channel. On the tailgate end there is a square plate welded against the channel and the floor frame. In line with this are two sets of 2 holes. I am wondering if this was a set of clips for mounting a spare antenna masts?
