Where is a good source to purchase seat tracks for my 182Q? My tracks are still within AD limits, but I have the interior torn apart and seats removed so it is a good time to install new tracks.

I believe I replaced mine with McFarland brand which were beefier.

x3 for McFarlane. Put in the inertia reel seat stop, if you haven't already, too.

X4, nothing else. Better product.

X5 for Macfarlane. Check with your installing IA as there is a choice between rivets or nuts & bolts for the install. Your IA will also appreciate an extra set of hands during the install process. Don’t be surprised if he mumbles something about “never doing this again” about two thirds of the way through.

Thanks to all that responded. I have the rails on order. I plan to install them myself. I am an A&P and I should be able to sign them off since this is a remove and install replacement and not a major alteration. I do have a sheet metal friend that will be helping me, as it is a two man job if one can't get their mate to help.

I am not that familiar with the inertial real stop, but if one is replacing the rails with new ones why would the inertial real stops be needed?

Because of Cessna's poor design. I like the other choices. I've had two different secondary seat stop devices installed and both are preferable to a seat belt for the seat. But what ever one you choose make sure you have one.
