Thanks a bunch, eurohb! That will help a lot. Swapping the cushions will make a big difference, while I'm at it.
I may have to detach the seat back frame from the base to take it to a welding shop, and it looks like four Torx screws hold the back on, plus rigging the cables that control reclining. That looks like the hard part. It is almost possible to get access to the separated weld that caused the problem just by moving the seat back fore and aft with the seat still installed, but the welder may not want to risk starting a fire in my upholstery!
Thanks again,
