8. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 1 , and further including stacking members positioned on each corner of the platform to allow multiple like pallets to be stacked.

9. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 1 further including castors or wheels attached to a bottom of the platform to allow movement.

10. A seat delivery pallet adapted to secure seats having various sizes, comprising:

(a) first and second end members, first and second side members, and a center member extending between the first and second side members;

(b) an elongate first seat support member positioned between and moveably connected to the first end member and the center member;

(c) an elongate second seat support member positioned perpendicular to the first seat support member, the second seat support member positioned between and moveably connected to the first and second side members; and

(d) a first foot locking device attached to and infinitely slidably adjustable along the first seat support member within a predetermined range of adjustment; and

(e) a second foot locking device attached to and infinitely slidably adjustable along the second seat support member within a predetermined range of adjustment.

11. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 10 , wherein one foot locking device is slidable toward the center member.

12. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 11 wherein one foot locking device is slidable toward one of the side members.

13. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 12 wherein one of the first and second end members includes a slot for receiving one of the seat support members.

14. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 13 wherein the center member includes a slot for receiving one of the seat support members.

15. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 14 , wherein each of the side members includes a slot for receiving one of the seat support members.

16. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 15 , wherein one support member is slidable toward the center member.

17. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 16 , wherein one support member is slidable toward one of the side rails.

18. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 17 wherein each support member is selectively securable in a pair of opposing slots.

19. The seat delivery pallet according to claim 18 wherein the first support member is disposed transverse the second support member.

20. A method of delivering a seat having feet with enlarged locking studs, comprising the steps of:

(a) providing a seat delivery pallet, comprising:

(i) a platform having first and second end members, first and second side members, and a center member extending between the first and second side members;

(ii) an elongate first seat support member positioned between and moveably attached to the first end member and the center member;

(iii) an elongate second seat support member positioned perpendicular to the first seat support member, the second seat support member positioned between and moveably attached to the first and second side members; and

(iv) a first foot locking device attached to and infinitely slidably adjustable along the first seat support member within a predetermined range of adjustment; and

(v) a second foot locking device attached to and infinitely slidably adjustable along the second seat support member within a predetermined range of adjustment;

(b) securing at least a first locking stud and a second locking stud of the seat to the seat delivery pallet by

(i) first securing the first locking stud in one of either the first and second foot locking devices by a first linear movement of the first locking stud relative to the foot locking device, and then

(ii) securing the second locking stud in the other of the first and second foot locking devices by a second linear movement of the locking stud relative to the foot locking device, wherein the second linear movement perpendicular to the first linear movement;

(c) adjusting the position of the first seat support member or the second seat support member after securing the first and second locking studs to the seat delivery pallet; and
