Hello Fellows,

My M38 came with the driver seat looking like CJ-3 model (See Picture below).
Could it be correct for a M38 early version?

The leg at the tranny looks to be in the wrong location.There should be a hole with a capture nut about 7 or 8 inches further back on the hump behind the 3x3 port in the floor.If the hole and nut are still there that is where the right front leg mount.If you can weld,it is an easy fix to remove the front leg and weld on another in the proper location.Also the foot should face forward not towards the passenger.

That does appear to mount up a little farther forward. Is there a hole with a weld nut a few centimeters back?
