I've have the board adjuster that goes behind the seat on my 51 truck on the way but I really don't know how they work. I only have the mounts and not the board. Does anyone have the dimensions of the board? Can anyone send me a picture of the thing in use also.
 
I have the pictures that you need at the house on the computer but you will have to wait until this evening when I get home from the car show before I can send them to you

The seat back adjuster on my 59 measures 49 inches long, 2 in.wide and 5/8 in. thick.
 
Mark is pretty spot on for measurements but are the Pics of the seat adjuster board i took out of a 1960 junker i found in salvage yard across town i dont have any pic of operation but it is pretty simple folded up bottom of seat back is all way back when folded down it moves the seat back out by 2"

Thanks a bunch Larry. That is exactly what I needed. It's guys like you that make restoring this Willys so much fun.
I'm really amazed that they didn't upgrade from that for so many years.
