Screamin Eagle Treestand Repair?

[Lone archer]

The seat on my stand has rotted thru. The stand is still on the tree. I want to make a new seat, drill the holes and bring it with me next time I go to the stand. I forgot to take measurments the last time out.

Does anyone know the size (I think it's 6x9)of the seat and spacing of the holes?

[Walt Francis]

The holes on one of my Eaglets are 2 3/4" and the ones on my full size Eagle are 3".  Both measurements are from center of hole to center of hole.  I can't tell you what size the original seat is, I change mine to larger seats as soon as I get them.

i can post tomorrow...mine is a tree in the woods behind the house.

Walt, what about front to back? Or are the holes centered each way? That would be 3" from back and front and 3" from left and right? Or is the seat more forward?

Thanks Walt and Gordie

hello rob,
the seat is "more forward", 1.5in off the edge,to the cnt. of the hole.
on my eagle the holes are 2.75in. apart,cnt. to cnt..
the seat is 10in.x 6.25in..
make a couple different sizes & see what fits you.
      good luck, gordie

The Screaming Eagle is still one of the toughest and most stable stand on the market. I'm using mine again this season and I believe this is the 29th season that it has been called on. I would gladly supply the needed info, but my grandson and I hung it a week ago yesterday and it hasn't been hunted yet. Sorry.

The seats for the Screaming Eagle stands are supposed to be 6x9 and have the holes 3 inch center to center beginning 1 1/2 from the back.  They seem to fluctuate a little, so it would only be a good guess.  Your best method is to remove the seat on a hunt and copy the mounting holes or bring the seat and a cordless drill next time you hunt.

I just did replace my seat, and I made it wider by about 2inches, which I like, but frankly I wish that I had made it deeper or pulled it forward more than it was, to get a little more leg support.  I used a scrap of wood in the first place and I might just redo it.  I also ground off the rust, replaced the chain and sprayed it with grey rustoleum.  A serious makeover, but it deserved it and has held up unbelievably to hanging neglected in the woods for many years:  good sturdy stand.
