Need info about my Dodge A100 Custom Sportsman's rear seat. The mounting hardware is missing and I do not know what they look like. Does anyone have a photo of their vans rear seat mounting hardware?

There are plates welded to the floor that have a circle and slot. You use carriage bolts that have a dome top and a square shank. The head fits through the circle and the shank is wide enough to lock into the slot. This makes a stud that will not spin sticking up from the floor plate.
On top of the stud there is a clamp like the ones in front, with a washer and nut. It's all on page 23-20 of the late manual.
Don't forget the seat belts too. They are on page 23-22.
They use special washers in the middle back to avoid running into the gas tank.

I have a copy of the service manual, but no sign of this info. Are you referring to the owners manual, when you speak of pages 23-20 of the late manual?

In reference to the statement that "RodStRace" made about the hardware, that is used to hold the rear seat to the floor.
"You use carriage bolts, that have a dome top and a square shank. The head fits through the circle and the shank is wide enough to lock into the slot. This makes a stud that will not spin sticking up from the floor plate.
On top of the stud there is a clamp like the ones in front, with a washer and nut".
Does anyone have a set of the hardware, (that holds the bench seat to the floor) that they would like to sell??

What length and size carriage bolt? Do they use a wing nut or a nut to secure the bolt?

can you drive the van to a local hardware store? (not big box like home depot) I have a locally owned ACE hdw down the street and the old guy there loves all the puzzles I bring in. and he’s not afraid to go outside and look at it. shouldn’t be that difficult to find the right sized carriage bolt.
