Poped my seat, need guidance

[89SportVert]

I broke my driver side seat. It appears that the left front (bolt-stud?) ripped right out of the floor. Do I need to have the floorpan replaced? What is this going to cost to fix?
Time go get a box to prop up the seat.

get it fixed quick. Once one has broke the others will be soon to follow due to the excessive movement of the seat. Let me know if you need it fixed.

Dude this has happened to me before, I just used a wet cloth and it wiped right up.

Put a 4in x 4in plate under the floor and bolt it thru the seat, old floor and new plate with a locking nut.

You don't need to replace the floor -- but you will need to find out exactly what happened before deciding how to fix it. It could be as easy as rewelding the tab that tore or it could mean welding in a new piece of metal under where the old sued to be. I would suggest welding because fo the stress in that area, but bolting could work just as well if done right.

Being one to push maximum density at all times, apparently my density has over come the strength of the floor. Or, my fat ass put too much stress on it.

Let me know if you need it fixed.

Um yea I need it fixed, but I need to know how much of my house payment I need to cull to get it fixed.

All the early Fox bodied cars had this problem, I got mine when it was 4 years old and it was already ripped out. Thru bolt it like I did 15 years ago and be done with it, it will cost $2 and hold up better than the original setup.
