The shots below show the process of removing a seat from a Liquid Logic Stomper. The way in which this seat is fastened into the shell will be very similar to all other recent LL kayaks. Before removing the seat I used a pencil to mark the inside of the hull so I knew its position ready for when it was fastened back in.
The seat is held in place by two bolts. Each one is located to the side of the cockpit. A Phillips headed screwdriver is all that is required to remove them. The bolt fastens into a threaded plastic slug that is located within a channel on the seat. You can safely remove the bolts without fear of parts dropping into the kayak. The aluminium guides that help keep the backrest straps in position are also held in with the same bolts and can be pulled out by hand once the bolts have been removed.
You will need to remove the back rest from the ratchet and undo the BADASS outfitting from the areas where it touches the kayak shell before going any further. I removed the backrest in its entirity. The seat will then easily twist out of position and can be removed from the boat.
These black nylon cuboids are used to allow fine adjustment of the seat. They sit within the black runners on each of the two seat posts.
I removed the seat to carry out a hull repair. Once this was done I twisted the seat back into position and began the process of lining everything up.
I used the screwdriver and an allen key to help line and hold everything in position and quickly got the bolt back into place.
I need a replacement seat for a Big Wheel, do you know where I could buy one.
