1998 Durango, I took my driver seat off and realized that the entire track is factory riveted together so you have to trash it instead of being able to fix it. I will drill the factory rivets out and get to the bottom of this nonsense.

I just bought a 98 Durango; same rocking driver's seat problem. It looks to me like a plastic sled is the culprit - worn down over time. I am going to try to drop something into the space (like the ball bearings one guy suggested). It is a bummer that that part of the track doesn't seem to be adjustable or replaceable.
My father's '99 Durango SLT 4WD only has 38,000 miles on it & has the same "rocking seat" problem both driver & passenger side. Definitely a design flaw by Dodge. Aside from expensive dealer or salvage fix, best to cheap fix by previous posts with nails, clamps, ball bearings etc. Can you spell "Class Action" should this seat problem be the cause of an accident? No wonder Chrysler is going out of business.

I have 1999 Dodge Durango and have put up with this seat issue for probably 5 years, I'm getting tired of it and looking to get it fixed. But can't find a seat, please help.

Same for my wife's 2001 Durango. Both passenger and drivers seat. Looks like I will have a lot of competition if I try to buy a used one.
I have a Dodge Durango SLT 2wd 4.7L; bought new it has under 60K miles. Just had to replace the transmission and now have the Drivers seat slide 1 inch problem. I have stated the facts of my experience and in my opinion Dodge sucks. I will never buy another dodge again.
To Dodge, take responsibility and issue a recall on this seat sliding issue and fix your mistake. not everyone can afford a fix that will cost several hundred dollars.
