lifting the seats in a 2016 tacoma

this is pic of my 2 inch

 

Really would like to see a pic of the side view of the seat so we can see how level it is.... Showing the brackets does not show seat angle. Thank you

 

Pretty please..... anyone....

 

If you're serious about lifting your seat, you're best with going Blistein or an ICON shock set, these can add up to 3" of lift! Body lifts generally don't add much comfort to the seat. Install is pretty easy too. But, if you get new coils, you'll need to borrow a spring compressor.

(Sorry)

 

I am sorry, but I think you are severely misreading this thread LOL. We are talking about the seat lifted in the truck for comfort......

 

Obvious joke post wasn't obvious enough.

Check out this thread on mod to raise and extend drivers seat but keep it tilted at the stock level front to back.

 

Save yourself some money like this guy did and buy the bolts and spacers at Home Depot for $5

 

I tried this method and it wasn't what I was looking for. It only raised the back which tilted the seat forward. It did not increase the leg room, actually shortened it a bit as it tilted me forward. It might work for you, but I ended up raising front and back and scooting seat back a couple inches.

 

First...Thank all for this great information...When you do the seat lift modification, is there a concern for the air bag activating?

 

I did not have any issue. I did not disconnect any of the wiring though. I would not think it would be an issue.

 

The seat belt is attached to the seat, not the floor..atleast in my '12

 

For me , it seems the steering wheel is too far away. I wish it could telescope closer to me.

That kinda throws off the seat angle.

 

Yours doesn't? Mine does.

 

I just came across this thread today, but a week ago I raised the rear of the seat using longer bolts and 7 flat washers. Gained about 3/4" or so, enough to make a difference. Cheap easy fix.

 

Oh yes, mine does too , but just not enough.

 

Just installed this seat modification using bolt and riser from 4crawler. Piece of cake and does make a difference. No concern with air bag or anything. 15 minute deal. very satisfied....I'm 5'6 by the way. 1 inch lift.

 

I would love to be able to lower the seat. Has anyone heard of a kit to accomplish that?

 

Do you have a link on that?

 

that's the $38,500 question.
