Seat Leather Shell Back Separating From Seat
I have had this fixed professionally (?) about 3 months ago and again the shell has separated from the seat. Any suggestions? I know the shell connects to the seat at a pivot point and one other point (per side). I was going to use some JB weld epoxy on that one 'other point.' I am open to some suggestions. Thank you.

RE: Seat Leather Shell Back Separating From Seat
First, thank you for your responses.
Unless I am reading the picture comments wrong, they refer to the part of the seat your rear rests upon. I am referring to the shell on the back of the area your back rests against--that shell mounts around a metal seat assembly and can be dealt with when the seat is folded forward. It appears to pivot about a cleat/slot at the base of the seat and attaches with some type of disc assembly at the mid back....the part itself appears to be a clamshell type piece that mounts to the back of the seat. I am sorry for the lack of complete description. I shall try to shoot a picture....
By the way, the seat I am having the problem with is the passenger seat and not the drivers seat. Maximum weight in the seat over the past couple weeks has been 130 lbs.
Thank you again for your responses.

RE: Seat Leather Shell Back Separating From Seat
In addition to engaging at the pivot point you mention, the edge of the opposite side of the cover engages in the seat frame. In addition there are two screws securing the cover. If you look at the seat from the rear and fold it forward you will see three scrrews -- one of these screws secures the cover. The other screw goes from the seat frame into the in-side of the cover, and to access it you have to remove the seat cushions.
If you send me an email I can reply with a PDF showing what I described above.
