    I put them in and love the difference they make. In previous threads here on the forum it seems that most taller people (6'+) noticed the increased comfort the most.

    With seat jackers the benefits are Huge you can get a better comfort and visual for looking beyond the hood is enormous. Just ordered a set for the highlander as well after the improvement it made on the 2022 tundra and easy to install! Call them up or email there is somebody always around for help or support as well as the you tube videos! Hope that helps!

    So for my 5' 2" wife, should I put front and rear on so she can see over the hood better? I don't have any issues but she needs to sit on a cushion which isn't ideal comfort wise.

    Thanks I appreciate it. I ordered the desert does it ones. I had similar ones on my Tacoma as well. Was glad they made them for the Tundra.

    I’m 6’2 and the seats seem to go plenty high enough for me. I have mine set about 1/4 of the way down. I was running it all the way up, I normally like to feel like I’m sitting way up but it feels like my head is too close to the roof. Kinda hard to see the stop lights that way.

    I’m 6’0. The ones that are for the Tacoma don’t have adjustability. I’m may use both spacers.

    For those of you who used these on the front and rear of the seat, does one kit have enough spacers to do both front and rear mounting points or did you need an extra/additional kit for each seat to get the rears properly set up?

    I saw that too, however, there are multiple shims included with each kit and it looks like you could place the unused shims under the rear mounts meaning only 1 kit per seat is would be needed. I am trying to validate that.

    Are these mostly for poverty trims w/o height adjustments?

    Nope. The stock height of the power seats still sits a bit low for many people when maxed out. These help that.

    You have a kit for the front and one for the rear. You can’t use shims for the front for the the rear and vise versa.

    I think he's talking about the rear of the front seat not the rear seats. I just ordered a set to see if they work for getting the wife a little higher. Still unclear if I'll need to lift both front and rear of the seat. We'll see when I get them

    ^this^ I am wondering of a single kit can lift all 4 mounting points on a single front seat.

    They can’t. You have front jackers and rear jackers that are pucks for the front seats.

    I always wonder why the front part of the seat cannot tilt up higher to support my legs. My Silverado went way up compared. I’m 6’5”, have to look into these some more. Thanks!

    I bought these for my 22 when I had it…darn seats are low even for someone 6-2

    …honestly I was to chicken to put them in as I bought into the “what if I had an accident…would these change how my seat reacts…would the bolts shear…yada yada”

    So they are still sitting in my garage even after I got rid of that truck.

    I don’t need them for the Pro however.

    Bringing back an old thread - for those using the seat jackers, are you still happy? Do you have any concerns regarding crash safety with the modified seat? Loving my new to me 2016 Tundra, but at 6'3" my thighs seem to cramp while driving. I think a slight tilt back might help?

    I had the in-expensive version of seat jackers installed in my 23. When they were installed, I could never find a comfortable position and my back was usually hurting after about 30 mins. After 6 months, I removed them and have been much happier and comfortable since.

    No issues in the few years I have had them and comfort is night and day for me. Just couldn't get the seat dialed in without them

    They seem to have helped with the lower back pain that I experienced with the 3rd gen.

    My 2nd gen seats were much more comfortable in my mind.

    I got a set of seat spacers for $50 on Amazon. Does the same thing as the jackers. Comes with two spacers per side for height adjusting. I only used one spacer on each side.

    I only got them because I have extra Taco Tunes harnesses and Line Out Converter crammed with the JBL amp under my seat. Needed that extra clearance so my seat doesn’t rub on them.
