Mine doesn't really "rock", but more like sliding forwards and backwards just a *tiny* bit. Kind of annoying at times.

I had a 90 GT which got the 'rocking chair' affect. The brackets actually broke, I had to get out the welder...

Is it a power seat? I think it is the slop in the worm gear for the forward and back adjustment. I replace the seat and a manual track and the problem went away.

That's probably what mine is. Taking the power unit out would probably save a couple pounds, but I like the fore/aft fine tuning and front/back tilt adjustment.
