BJ7 Seat Mounting

The previous owner of my BJ7 started the restoration and had new floor pans installed. I'm now to the point of installing new seat slides and bottom frames. Problem is there are no holes in the new floor pans to tell me where they go. I have three questions. 1) I presume the adjustment arm seat slide is the inboard one? 2) Can someone measure the distance from the rear bulkhead to the rear of the fixed portion of the seat slides? 3) Are the seats centered between the drive shaft hump and the outer sills? If they are not, please provide a measurement from the inside of the outer sill to the center of the seat slide mounting holes. Griz

This is the seat tracks only. Don't forget the insulation panel under the car and the exhaust hangers. More complicated than illustrated in this drawing. I'm still waiting for access to an original BJ8 so I can get ALL the demensions for a complete drawing. Hopefully soon.
