My 20 yr old seat is A1A ,the base started to go thread bare on outer edge so I got a cover off a passenger seat base from a scrap yard and stretched it over my drivers seat base ,a perfect solution. and keeping it looking original.
Seat aināt collapsed on a 20 year old truck?
Bet the bunk is ****ed, you lazy ***********!
dozy:
just ring up fleet & theyl give you a job number to get it repaired like everything else , so ā ā ā ā ā ā ā easy itās beyond belief , yet weāve drivers on about buying seat covers as a repair , what kind of tin pot company do they work for , unbelievable
Funny you should say that but around January time I was in Scania Normanton sat in the rest room drinking free coffee watching top gear waiting for them to find out why engine management light kept coming on my motor when a Stobart Tramper came into the rest room,it was around 2000 hrs and he was nearing his 15hr but he told me he couldnāt do another night without a night heater(it was freezing btw),heād done half the week and kept ringing up but they kept telling him finish your work then take it!! He even told me one night he fired engine up to put blowers on and they rang him next morning to ask why engine had been idling for 20 minsā¦
Tin pot companies indeedā¦
Foam hanging out of the drivers seat is the least of my worries if iām cab hopping. You should smell the seat before you sit on it, they are all without exception, disgusting with a nauseating stink of human excrement and sweaty bum hole. I used to always bring a towel to sit on when i was cab hopping, otherwise youāre transferring someones sweaty ā ā ā smell onto your trousers, then going home and sitting on your sofa and bringing that awful smell home with you.
I wouldnāt for a torn seat with exposed foam unless it was really bad. Iād just compensate with a cushion I keep in my boot.
I remember working for a firm with a fleet of early 2000 DAF CFs, and found after a few years the driverās seat leaned to the left. This meant the bolster flattened, the tubular frame began poking through, and it tightened my boxers around my nads. We used to complain a bit and got some replaced. But I canāt recall anybody ever refusing to drive them. I just used a cushion to level it off, which worked well.
How can anyone get a sore backside in a modern truck? Try and old AEC or a Guy Big J or most older vehicles and you will realise how lucky you are. It was bad enough but then you had to turn the steering wheel whilst fully loaded in a tight space. Mind you your backside got a rest then as you sometimes had to stand up to turn.

On the subject of smelly seats, I never use the heated seat for this reason. Ten years of fermenting beer ā ā ā ā ā that simmer and float is the final indignity for me and my senses.
