Abstract
A bearing assembly for upper and lower track members of a seat slide includes a flexible elongate member which is bowed by engagement with a longitudinal rib of the upper track member to engage roller end portions of the elongate member with flanges of the lower track member when the seat is unoccupied and engage bearing means between flanges of the track members to locate the components of the seat slide in rattle free relationship. When the seat is occupied, the upper track member is shifted downwardly to engage the roller end portions of the elongate member with the upper track member and provide rollers slidably supporting the upper track member on the lower track member.
