<p>A one-piece seat back frame for a seat assembly and method of forming includes a first member and an opposed second member spaced a predetermined distance apart. A third member extends between the first and second members. A fourth member is spaced a predetermined distance from the third member and has an initial predetermined dimension that is over-sized a predetermined amount to form an excisable slip plane portion, and a final predetermined dimension after the excisable portion is removed and free ends rejoined, so that the one-piece seat back frame can be adjusted prior to rejoining the free ends. The methodology removes the excisable portion, attaches a component to the frame, aligns the component by manipulating the fourth member free ends in the slip plane and rejoins the fourth member tree ends.</p> |
