Topic: 1947 Mercury front seat springs

  My drivers side of the front seat is feeling tired.

Is there a way to build it back up, that can be done with out taking off the cover?

  You might try stuffing the coil springs with foam rubber, but if you have a broken coil or two the cover should come off. If the problem is in the backrest portion the cover will definitely have to come off.

  Thanks, the back is perfect, but. The seat is getting worse as time goes by.

I don’t think the springs have any break, but need to get a good look in there.

One fellow used pool noodles at different levels. Here is his innovative solution.
