Abstract

A power seat adjuster includes first and second spaced track assemblies, each formed of an upper track slidably mounted in a lower track anchored to a vehicle floor. Each upper track is integrally formed as a one-piece member and has at least one pair of spaced mounting flanges integrally formed as a part thereof and extending outward from the upper track. Aligned apertures are formed in the mounting flanges to connect a tubular member extending between the track assemblies to the upper track of each track assembly. Another pair of mounting flanges may be formed at the opposite end of each upper track for mounting a second tubular member between and to the upper tracks of the track assemblies.
