Does your seat rock ?

The seat on my Cat 307 rocked badly and it bothered me so I fixed it.

I had never seen a seat slide assembly with these rollers made from springs. Didn't seem to have worked very well.
So I made some slides/spacers out of UHMWPE.
Has to be better than the seat slapping up and down.
