1952-59 Ford Front seat

Hi guys !!
I would like to know how to move my front seat, I have a pull at the bottom left but it does not move! Do I have to shoot it, push it, lift it up or something because my seat doesn’t move! Thank you soo much !

 

Take the seat out.. 4 bolts from under the car. 3/8” fine with a 9/16” bolt head. I use a card table to do the servicing.

Turn it upside down and make sure the side to side metal rod is there hooked to each release on the rails. You can make one from bailing wire.

It is very important that the “S” clip is in the center high under the seat cushion so the side to side clears the drive shaft tunnel. It attaches to one of the seat springs.

Service the rails. When clean, I use lubriplate on the slides.

Make sure they are even when you put the seat back in.

 

If it's been sitting they are probably rusty or that cable could be broken. If the cable is broken usually the drivers side will move some so I'm going with rusty or jammed up. I did the same thing as Jimmy Six recommended.
