Dave & John, That is correct but I would not suggest it as raising the tracks like that could make the mounting studs more prone to bending or breaking in a collision. The lack of support would increase bending leverage and give the seat more built-in inertia in a crash IMHO. Any of the engineers on the list with theoretical experience in bending force loads and leverage effects care to confirm or refute this? In any case not many shops would want to take on the potential liability of doing any modifications to the mounting of your seats but you're free to do so on your own. If you do raise the seat I'd suggest at least shimming the tracks so they fully contact the floor but I'm not recommending it....OK? It's something you might consider anyway.
