I think it is the seat that is the problem. I have a pair of the later Morgan seats. The back is adjustable. It give a lot of lateral support. Maybe too much. These replaced a non adjustable 1970 to 1980 +8 seats that I found to be the most comfortable. I set them high enough to go over the spring perch. As I have a 1998 chassis this is about 1" lower than the earlier +8 models. This to give Me adequate leg/arm room. I then put screw jacks under the front, so I could change the angle of the seat. I experimented with the screw jacks to find the most comfortable position for My Back. It took a bit of fiddle. With this set up I was able to put a 12 hour shift in My +8 from Northern California to Seattle. And I could still walk. I also took a pill called "ALEVE". It helped.
