seat rail problem
My driver's seat doesn't move forwards and backwards properly.

I removed the bottom seat cushion and found a weak component flexing and warping.

Found what looks to be a robust solution but the CNC machined part is $538 from pelican parts!

Anyone find a cheaper solution to what appears to be a common problem?
