    Seat jackers are in! Easy install. The worst part was those plastic covers over the rear bolts. You guys were right, I didn’t have to cut the husky liners. There is a small gap under them now, but it’s negligible and I think it will probably settle over time.

    Pics, of course. Ignore the dog hair.

    Haven’t driven it yet. We shall see!

    Well, I’ve had these installed for almost a week. I’ve waited to post feedback because I wasn’t quite sure if I liked them at first, and I wanted to give it some time to make a fair assessment. After about a week of driving with these, and adjusting my seat all over the place to find the right spot, I can honestly say I’m really happy to have them and I wouldn’t go back. It took some adjusting for me for a few days, but they truly do add some comfort, and I no longer feel like I’m being dumped forward into the floorboard. If you’re on the fence after installing, give it a few days. They really do make a difference.

    A whole bunch more comfort! The seat goes into the reclined position, you sit more in it vs on it.

    I drove to/from Nashville, TN last week. I feel like I was more comfortable with the seatjackers. Perhaps a little more leg room. I still wish the seats were a bit longer.

    which is funny cause they're almost too long for me - debating whether to try these cause one of the reasons that I left the taco (other than the seat overall was just terrible) was that they were too bucketed, but these ones are a little more on the planed side. I also find it interesting that when you adjust the front incline, it only moves the front part of the seat, not the whole pan; as well that the rear incline is just up and down, not a pitch setting

    I too wasn't sure about the seat jackers as if it wasn't short person friendly. But I found there is a happy medium when it comes to the seat position in the foward/backward transitions. I added it to the passenger seat BTW. Once the seat was positioned in a good fwd/back position I found the seat jacket added a really good incline that made it much more comfortable. The driver seat imo is good due to the floor incline

    oh yeah, totally plan on getting the passenger seat one - my wife already said it needs to be "fixed" :laugh:

    Sorry, so did you install them on the driver side, or did you find that you were happy without them?

    Only installed on passenger side. I find the driver side comfortable as the floor is sloped near the pedals

    The front seat brackets have a little stub/pin on bottom, they are not flat like one might expect.

    I was finding the seat a bit too high with the seat jacket and it was putting pressure behind the knee. Its not usually a problem, but after 2 days of sledding and tired legs, it was quite uncomfortable on the 3.5 hour drive home , so A friend milled 1/4” off the top.
    I believe it should work, but I only did one set incase there is an issue with it fitting properly.
    Will report back when I get it installed and see if there is an improvement

    knocking 1/4” off the height works, but takes a bit of hacking to make it fit. Required 2 thick washers for the front, top bolts.
    Feels better for me, but we are all built differently so YMMV.
    A great product and i am glad it is build from a huge chunk of quality aluminum.
