Hi,

I think a lot of westy owners have some sort of issue with the swivel seats... either too tight, or too loose, or hard to swivel.

there is a thread on the samba that explores this issue, and the one of the last entries is gold, a link to a photo essay (UK club 80-90) on how to take apart assembly, clean, and install new plastic slider bits (which seem to be NLA so you have to make your own)
