the sucker king Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 i am trying to clear out a bunch of crap and i have found a brat jumpseat and headrest. i probobly got it at a junkyard. i want to know if they are from a gen 1 or gen 2. are there any differences in the tube frame? i read recently on the board that the headrest slider is a different length between the two gens. can anyone give a measurement? did any of these come with out the grips? i think these were cut, but it is a very cean cut, looks stock.

the sucker king Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 if it helps, the holes to mount the slider on are 22 inches apart. this is one of the differnces between gen 1 and gen 2 i believe. anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahag1978 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 The seats are the same on both Gens. I found that Gen one has a heavy "leather" embossed look in the plastic while the Gen2 had a fine pebbly finish. I'm pretty sure the headrests are the same. I can measure each tomorrow if you want.

the sucker king Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 thanks, hag. if you wouldn't mind measuring the two it would be great. the seat i have has the leather look (kind of like reptile skin?) so i'm guessing gen 1? actually the headrest has that finish as well.

86BRATMAN Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I've got a set of gen 1 headrest installed in my gen 2 brat, I drilled out a new hole for the top bolt on them about 3/4 -1 inch up from the existing hole. I don't have any gen2's to compare to damn 86... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the delay. The Gen 2 is nearly 24" hole to hole (it was hard getting a metal tape in there). So it must be a Gen1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
