STEP 8: Now slide rail back until you can access the
bolt retaining the screw and block assembly to the
rail. There is a nut on the back side of the rail that
must be held for bolt removal. Using the 15mm
wrench, slide wrench through side access hole as
shown above and secure nut on backside of rail
and remove bolt using the 3/8” 12 point shallow
socket and ratchet. The nut is  anged and will stay
on wrench provided you do nut turn the wrench
upside down, so simply slide wrench out of access
hole after bolt is removed and set aside.
STEP 9: Holding rail towards back of seat, use the
T-20 screwdriver to remove the two bolts attaching
the drive mechanism to the rail and pull driveshaft
out of screw assembly by pulling straight back and
position out of the way of the screw assembly.
Please note: Be very gentle when tightening the two bolts attaching the drive
assembly to the rail, these do not need to be very tight to retain the drive assembly
and the aluminum drive can be stripped very easily if over tightened.
STEP 10: Now push end of screw assembly out of
plastic bushing toward rear of seat as shown above,
then slide the rail to gain access to screw assembly
mounting bracket on other end of rail. Using a
 athead screwdriver, pivot bracket 180 degrees. This
will take some patience as it is a tight clearance, but
is necessary for the screw and block assembly to
clear the rivet located on the rail for removal of the
assembly.
STEP 11: Sliding the rail to the most rearward
position (towards seat back), use both hands and
push from one end of the screw and block assembly
and pull from the bracket you rotated 180 degrees
(some wiggling is necessary) and remove rod and
block assembly from rear side of track.
