Drivers seat

I will have had my, MGM OR 4x4 one month as of March 23, I now have 875 miles I still find that I have problems entering and exiting the drives seat.
Does anyone else have the same problem FYI I also have the chrome Tacoma running board

 

Perhaps you could describe why you're having a problem...

 

Wut?

I mean I know what you said, but what you said tells us nothing about your problem?

 

Mine came with those predator-step-things.
They did nothing but impede my access and were gone the first night.

 

Okay, entering / exiting _ moving in and out !
I some times feel that the steering wheel is to low and yes I know of the adjustment

 

Okay, so does it seem to high, too low, is the cross over too deep, is the opening too small?

On EDIT: And just so people can evaluate and make recommendations, if that's what you're looking for, do you have any limitations or circumstance that others may be able to relate?

 

So you have the TRD OR with the new stock ride height?
Without putting words in your mouth your not sure whether to step up on and get in using the predator step or slip in sideways is what I am guessing...

I have the TRD OR with the stand ride height and 256/75/16 Goodyear tires @ 38psi, and I have the same issue, standing at 5-10 200lbs its feels like overkill using the step to mount my ride, and a bit awkward sliding in without the step....

A couple of options for me at this point:
1: Remove the predators
2: Get my new performance lift installed and re-evaluate the predator. Sliders are my preference at this point once I have dropped some significant cash into suspension, tires and wheels, so some quality sliders would more than likely be be in order. Not a fan of a step hanging out off road.
3: Live with what I have for the time being, taking the hop step mount approach, or ass slide mount....till I cant stand it no more..

If I missed something let me know, but I do know what your talking about, and am living with it for know, but heavily leaning for my option 2. I know there are plenty of folks who would opt for a set of predators for their ride at the right price...

Hope that helps.

 

Ummm. He wasn't the one asking for help. He only stated he removed the predator steps because he didn't like how he entered with them on

 

Are we on the same thread?
Looks to me like he was asking if anyone else had the same problem,
and I guess I missed where he removed them....

So I missed your point is what I missed, whats that got to do with an F150?

 

I want to lower my seat.

 

Permission granted.

 

I am just asking if anyone has found a problem with entering / exiting drivers seat !!
I am 5' 9" with no leg problems weight 175 I think that's enough info

 

I think they are trying to ask questions as to exactly what part of your legs or body are hitting what part of the steering wheel, dash, door.. ect there are many possibilities

 

Your reply was to the wrong person. I was just trying to explain that. But your to incompetent to realize that

 

I have the predator bars but step in over them. I'm not a tall guy (5'10) but have no issues with the stock height or seat level.

 

I hit my head on the door opening on occasion. I'm only 5' 10"

 

Sorry OP not trying to jack your thread. This guy is a little slow. Anyway, let us know exactly what seems to be getting in the way. If you don't really need or use the steps, taking them off may actually help. Not sure if the 3rd gens have a telescoping steering wheel now, but that maybe help adjusting it in, not just up or down

 

Okay , let's get back to subject ! Enuff ranting

 

OP, I have to agree. I'm 5'11", 200 lb (could stand to lose a few). I want the wheel up and seat back when I get in; and wheel down and seat forward when driving. My right knee seems to riquochet off the door, dash and wheel on entry.

But it's all part of the ritual of preparing to drive a taco. Gear in neutral, clutch start cancel, ignition on, seat heat on, seat up, wheel down, sunglasses on, Bluetooth on, lights auto, climate synch, reverse sonar, dash cam loop, apps, setup, screen off, find reverse, etc.

 

I'm in a T4R now, had a 2012 DCSB 4x4 OR. I'm 5-9 & 150lbs...never had an issue.
