    Re: Bradington Young Replacement Recliner Mechanisms

    Duane,
    Thanks, that does make some sense, when I/we close the mechanisms, I suppose we are trying too hard to tuck the foot rests under the seat for the past 11+ years.

    What is the difference in how much they tilt/recline back?

    Does both tilt back to the same maximum angle?
