Is there a kit or a safe way to raise the 40/20/40 seat a few inches? Driving with the window open today I noticed it wuld be a little more comfortable if the seat were higher.

Yes I have tilt wheel steering so that is not a problem. There is plenty of room between the top of my head and the roof. No I am not going to spend a lot money on replacing it with an electric seat from the junk yard or where ever. (Money is better spent on dive gear and dive trips versus spending it on a truck.)

Of course we cant compromise safety when doing this.

Thanks

i guess you could probably take the front seat off and see if you can make up some brackets to raise the seat a bit. not sure if youll be able to get the bolts off though.

this is a new one on me

 

you could try sitting on a phone book

 

HEHEHE....sorry but that was funny
But really.. The more head room the better... sucks banging your head on the roof..when slamin in out of ruts and holes...

 

DARN! you beat me to the punch time!

Careful on the phone book idea...you would need to alter your pedals with wood blocks then!

 

Actually I'm 6 feet tall. I don't beat the truck up so banging the head isn't a concern.

 

get longer bolts and pieces of thick solid steel. People will argue with me that it isn't safe, but I think it would be. something you might not have thought about would the shoulder strap on the seat belt be comfortable if you raised the seat.

 

shoulder strap will move with the seat, it wont be stationary

 

hockey pucks with longer bolts....lol

 

I believe that would be called a butty lift. [8D]
