    Front only. It’s definitely a more natural position with the front raised. My drivers seat is also electric but it improved it 1000%. I bought the knock off Amazon ones for 35 bucks because I wasn’t sold but I’m glad I did. Especially with long trips coming up this summer.

    I assume you are tall, or would it benefit a 5' 7" midget like me?

    Not the OP.
    I'm 5'8" and tried this for the front. It did not work for me because my legs are short so I raised the rear 1" and this worked for me.

    hmm that's interesting - I just did a 2.5k round trip and it was my back that would ache after a while

    I’m 6’3 but my wife is 5’6, I’ll have her sit in in and see if she thinks it’s comfortable.

    When I first attached the swing bracket, I added some L-brackets at the bottom to prevent the wind from folding it downward. A couple of members cautioned me that it might damage the lower valance. Later on I found an old license plate mount and modified it to this. Now I don’t have to worry about the valence being punctured.

    I did the rear for both sides. I'm short (just trust me on this part) but the rear seat jackers have really made the long drives A WHOLE LOT better and I find that I'm able to drive for longer and I don't feel as tired and I'm not sore the following morning. I did the passenger side as well but my wife says she couldn't tell the difference

    Let the plants grow in the bed, then sell them roadside.

    My back would ache after that long of a trip in any vehicle! And a truck of course is not known to be the pinnacle of comfort. I need to move.
    FWIW, I have the front lifts on and it supports my thighs better (6', 34" inseam). I also have not made more than a 2 hour drive in my Tacoma so I'm not a good data point.

    Good to know. So you put the Seat Jackers on the front on both the driver and passenger sides?

    I'm 5'11" - was 6' - getting old(er) sucks :rofl: - with fairly long legs (36" inseam). Wife is 5'7" with shorter legs. That's why we were thinking she'd benefit from the back being raised more than the front.

    TIA, again.

    Raising the back, in my opinion, takes away support from under the thighs which can cause back pain. Unless the person is REALLY short, I’d imagine raising the front is what provides the most support.

    Interesting layout for your grill lights. (I'm petty and refuse to call them the other things) What's the old quote about "good artist borrow?" Like the layout ... might have to steal it.

    After waiting 4 months to get them, then another few weeks for good weather and some time off to align, I finally got the new Baja Designs Squadron SAE Fogs installed. These are certainly “sharper” than the previous version.

    Depends I guess.... My V6 ECT seemed to do nothing... The ECT on my 4cyl makes a big difference.

    I need to do the rear on the driver's seat immediately.. I bought my truck and never test drove it because I already had a first gen. I felt like I was sitting in a hole compared to my first gen.. rear seat jackers were a necessity for me to feel like I was driving a truck.
