    Do they extend down enough to cover seat back lever? My seat lever cover is removed because I was worried about damaging it from sliding in and out of the seat.

    I guess you could leave them untucked, and have it hanging over the lever, but remember they will be tied under the seats, which would make accessing the lever fairly cumbersome with the added risk of eventually tearing the seat cover covering the lever due to excess use.

    Anyone know what the cold climate package consisted of? I know the starter was one thing, but when looking up parts something about the windshield cowl being different also.

    With what you'll be doing with your truck, you don't need TC uniballs. Uniballs are also more maintenance (need to be oiled and get dirt and grime in them) and they are more prone to squeek.

    The SPCs were a good way for you to go. Just shoot some grease in them everytime you change your oil and they'll be fine.

    Not all alignment shops will know how to utilize the adjustments on the SPCs.

    Where'd you get the brackets? Or did you make them?

    Not sure what you mean by the seat back lever - but I'll try to answer anyway, like we all do lol :p. They don't cover any of the plastic bits/controls of the seat; they simply cover all of the fabric (very snugly).

    I feel your pain, the anticipation, the day dreaming, the excitement, then they arrive and you’re immediately deflated. Not cool, not cool at all.

    Sorry, was on my phone earlier and in a hurry.

    I wanted to know if those covers extend down enough to cover the area shown in the pic I posted. That plastic has a habit of breaking.

    Mine is still OK because I took it off to prevent damage. Hence, my seat has the exposed mechanical's.

    You pic didn't show if the covers draped down enough to cover that area.

    You could probably partially cover it, possibly fully cover it, see where I tuck my seat cover in the plastic, just leave it out. I can’t remember if the side tie down is in the front or back, if it’s in or near the back it might work for you.E27E3D93-1D9B-43ED-8E48-8FE2D83A90B4.jpg

    Gonna see if they will either refund some money so I can go buy hardware or see of they will overnight some hardware. Not getting my hopes up that they will do either though
