89 GT Mustang Sport Seat Question

[whiteponygirl89]

Ok, my seat was trashed, got a frame and seat rails shipped from Mustang junkyard.
Well, they are not right because now my seat sits reclined too far!
Then got a different recline mechanism and it still isn't right, think it came from
a different year, and the same with the seat frame.
Now my seat is pieced together from God knows what!
Ugh! In the most upright position, it still sits too far back.
I have to put my half seat down so that it is somewhat comfortable.
Any help or does anyone have an 89 GT sport seat available without the gangsta lean, upholstery color doesn't matter as
I can swap upholstery.
Or does anyone have any info to help me?
It is my understanding that these seats are for just a couple of years.
Help me guys, PLEASE!

Mine doesn't have the gangsta lean, it is just reclined back too far. My mechanic reinforced the seat I have now to make sure that lean doesn't happen on this seat but doesn't solve my too far reclined issue.

My mistake, I thought you say it had the Gangster lean.

This might help it' from the 89 Mustang Shop Manual.

We replaced this 3 times now. I just don't understand why it sits so reclined, it shouldn't.
OH! I wonder if the slide part, looks like a long bean, has anything to do with placement?!
Maybe if the guy moved it, or am I thinking wrong? Or is that the reclining movement?

I think, maybe, after to sending pictures to the Mustang Salvage yard that there is nothing wrong with the lever. He thinks it's not attached right on the upper part. I don't know it's so darn frustrating!
This picture shows you how far back the seat is!
This is the most upright it will be, UGHHHH!
