A vehicle seat assembly, a biasing mechanism, and a method of installing a vehicle seat assembly are provided. A first end region of a torsion spring is for fixed connection to a vehicle frame bracket mount such that the seat back rotates relative to the first end region of the spring about a transverse axis. A second end region of the torsion spring is offset from the transverse axis. A support bracket is connected to the seat back, with the intermediate region of the torsion spring supported for rotation by the support bracket. A block supported by the support bracket and offset from the transverse axis, with the block contacting the second end region of the torsion spring to bias the spring when the seat back is in a first, use position.
