OK, You guys may remember, that my dad pulled the seat from the truck, as he was scraping 10 pounds of rat droppings from under the seat, he struck onto these tools pictured below.

Here is the seat:

Anyone have any idea what those two little pouches on the underside of the seat could be?
Here is the mirror:

The "pouches" under the seat are actually releif valves. When you sit in the seat, there's some air displacement (or alot of air displacement if you're pushing the 300# mark like I am!), and those valves allow for a controlled escape of the air. If you sit on the seat, you'll hear them blow out.

I thought they were like pouches they put the build sheet in when the truck was assembled.
Notice how on the tire iron it's longer, and looks odd, that is for reaching inside a dually...
