Any forum members rebuilding seat tracks/motors?

That depends on what is wrong with them.

I saw a thread a while back where the poster used a plastic welder to weld the broken seat transmission case on his seats (sorry, I couldn't find a link). They immediately broke again. His ultimate recommendation was to just buy a good replacement transmission.

i picked up a used one in good shape at a swap meet, you can find them on ebay, just remember that there are two different type of connectors round pin and square pin depending on your year.

I bought a good used one for the 94 but the connector was wrong so I just swapped out the motor from one to the other. I then purchased a new rebuilt transmission from E Bay and proceeded to repair the original track. I will have to swap the motor again if I need to use this but it will be my spare.
I did take apart the old transmission and there is no way to repair them once the plastic parts inside break. They guy that is fixing them bought the rights or the molds from GM. He will not sell just parts.

Thanks fellas, I'll starting looking for some good used ones. I have an 88, are those pins round or square?

I cant remember what year they went from round pins to square maybe some one will chime in or you may be able to google it.

You can always just cut and splice the connector or do like I did and swap the motor.
