How to Remove a Rear Seat in a Buick Roadmaster

The rear seat in a Buick Roadmaster is snapped into place, and can easily be removed in a few minutes without using any special tools. Once you remove the seat from the frame, you may need help removing it from the Roadmaster, as it will be very heavy.

1. Press down firmly on the lower seat cushion in the back of the Buick Roadmaster. Push back while you are pushing down on the lower seat cushion. If you are unable to do this, ask someone to press back on the seat while you press down on the lower seat cushion. Keep doing this until you feel it start to move. This may take you a little time.


2. Pull up on the rear seat and push it forward. Lift the rear seat out with the help of a friend. Have your friend get on one side of the Buick and you get on the other, and then both of you start lifting at the same time. This seat will be very heavy and hard for one person to remove.


3. Use a ratchet and socket to remove the backrest bolt from the floor. You can then slide the backrest up and then lift it completely out. The rear seat in the Buick Roadmaster should now be completely removed. When you are ready to put it back in, just follow these steps in reverse order. Make sure you tighten the bolt using  the ratchet and socket when you put it back together.
