This is another of the carrier mysteries which we will hopefully solve in this thread.
The cushion portion shown on the storeage diagram is held on with a strap, and covers the forward 2/3rds of the board. There are actually two of these cushions, one located on the board which fits on the two angles, and another of the same cushion is used as a kneeling pad, located on the floor board forward of the gas tank.
The seat board, as near as I can figure, is a piece of plywood with 4 blocks underneath which locate it on the two angles. The board does not go right to the back armor, as there has to be enough room for the grease gun hose to sneak through and latch on to the dummy nipple located on the flare gun bracket.
The stowage diagram shows more screws through the board than would make sense, so I think my expplanation of the board may be too simple. I look forward to some photos as well.
