Let's see how good you guys really are.
The passenger seat in Elvira has never moved as long as I have had the car. I figure now is about time to fix that. At first I thought it might be bolted in. That is not the case. The seat is all the way back. It is some how hung up past the last stop on the slider. The tilt lever does move, but there is no where for the seat to go. The seat is wedged in as far back as it can go.

I have pulled as hard as I can but the seat will not move forward.
Where is it caught and how do I get it un-stuck?
No, a (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif) is not an option.

could the bar that connectes both sides be broken and therefore only lifting on one side.

try sticking a long long screw driver or a piece of metal in to lift the other side and then try to slide it

edit: you are moving the seat tilt or trying to slide the seat you said the the tilt lever moves but the seat might be tilted all the way forward and cant go back because the seat is slid back. the slide lever is on the front of the seat, the tilt is on the side
pull the drivers seat if it is still on the stock slider pull it out to see how it works
