Using only the original parts I was able to re-assemble the backrest with its cushion parallel to the seat. I only had to flip one bracket. It was strong but wobbled side to side.

Adding a piece of 2×4 with a notch cut from it solved the problem.

Final re-assembly. Make sure the wheels lock and/or that it wont fall over too easy.
