What's up, guys? I'm Andy from 1A Auto. In this video, I'm going to show you how to remove the rear seat in this 2015 Chevy Silverado. If you you need parts for your vehicle, click the link in the description and head over to a 1aauto.com.
Now, we already have the front seats removed in this vehicle. You don't have to take the front seats out. It's easier to show on film what we're doing. So, we're going to take the rear seat and grab this handle underneath, this strap, and lock that seat like that. With the seat in the up position, you're going to take an 18 mm socket and a ratchet and we want to take this nut out behind here. This is for the seat belt. Take this one off. Take this nut off. Slide this bracket up, and we can grab from up here. Grab the seat belt and slide it out of the way. Just put it right there.
To remove the seat, you actually don't have to remove this one. Just slide the belt buckles through the bottom. I want to remove these four nuts. There's two on this side and two on that side. On this side, if the jack is in your way there's supposed to be supposed to be a jack right here; It's not here on this vehicle. You're going to want to pull that out and then I'll just take the 18 mm socket and a ratchet and take these nuts out.
So, when you take the last nut out of that bracket, the seat is going to fold forward a little bit, so don't worry about that. It shouldn't fall all the way. It's just lifting up from the back side of the bracket. Just be aware.
Now we're going to lift it out. It's a good idea to grab a helper 'cause this seat is very heavy. What we're going to do is fold that seat in, grab underneath, lift up, and then we can slide it out one of the doors. Place it down. It's just mostly awkward. It's not wicked wicked heavy. Pick up. So, on the back side of the seat, this is these hooks. This is why you need to lift the seat up, to get those hooks out of the anchors in the vehicle.
Now, we're going to use a partner and slide the seat back in.
Then we're going to install the nuts--two on the other side and two on this side. All right. Now, I'm going to tighten these up. Just use an 18 mm socket and a ratchet. I'm going to use an 18 mm socket in a torque wrench and I'm going to torque these nuts and then ones on the other side to 37 foot pounds.
Now I can remove the seat belt from up here. I want to slide this down here. You want to make sure it's not twisted. I'm just going to slide the seat forward a little and tuck it in. Take this bracket; It's going to go on here just like that. Install the nut and then I'll torque that to 33 foot-pounds. Then you take the buckle side over here and tuck these in. So, let this tip down a little bit. I can try to push this through. There we go. There we go. And there's the seat.
