Well, Today I repaired my lumbar per RamGazers directions and it went fine.
The hardest thing to do was get the dang cover unlatched at the bottom.
I changed it a bit, by drilling out the plastic piece that the repaired piece screws into so the repaired piece would seat fully.

This (especially the pics) helps a ton. I am going to try to do this tonight but mine is broken in outside the pin.

Excellent write up, this is a great help. Thanks. The problem I am having concerns the black part in photo 4 from the top of the lumbar 2 post. It's the black plastic mechanism that threads through the side of the seat frame that contains the new eye bolt assembly (which I had to repair as well). My part is broken in half right at the juncture where it threads through the seat frame. I tried to JB Weld it as well as Gorilla Glue, then finally Crazy Glue it with no success? Do you guys know where I can get this piece? A visit to my local Mopar dealer resulted in him trying to sell me the entire rear seat assemble. What a bargain. Thanks for the help.

Here's a better fix. This one will not break.

The black part is part of the lumbar assy kit P/N 5516079AA. About $55 from dealer. Same crappy weak white threaded part included!!!
