Seat Jackers worth it?

Did you install the front seat jackers? How tall are you?

I’m 5’11” and also have the power seat and it’s pretty comfy as-is but wondering how much difference they’d make.

Installed rear seat jackers for the wife on the passenger side and she still comments on how much they improved things.

 

I'm 5'11" as well with long legs. I've always had to drive with the seat pushed back all the way or pretty close to it.

 

Same here. Might give them a try and see how it feels. A lot of latinum for an experiment, but could be worth it. Thanks!

 

I installed a set on the drivers front, they were ok but it was a bit cumbersome for me getting in and out. Took em' out this morning. I will probably post them for sale soon.

 

Yes. Makes the experience better. You can lift your legs for that cholo lean or max out the height to see that over LONG AF hood.

 

I’m 6’1” and they’re the only things that make the seating position remotely bearable.

 

1million percent worth it! They have made a huge difference in my driving!

 

I'm 6ft and don't have any issues without the sear jackers. I've sat in trucks with them and it felt more uncomfortable with them than without. If you have a buddy with them installed, I would recommend trying sitting in their truck and feel the difference yourself.

 

I forgot to mention the mole panel you can use to mount stuff. I use for a NOCO battery boost GB40 and flashlight.

IMO Not worth it for a manual transmission at 5'9

Knee is now way Too close to the steering wheel to properly use the clutch

 

I tried them and ended up taking them out. My knees were too close to steering wheel. I’ll probably install them for use on long trips. Not my thing for daily.

 

Seat Jackers are the best. Bought a set for my Tacoma and for my Prado. Liked them so much I bought a second set for each truck.
Also, buy the real deal and not some ChiCom knockoff. Let’s keep US dollars in the USA!

 

+1 for supporting US dollars.

 

Totally worth it for me. Just gives you a little more leg support.

I bought the mole panel, but that didn't work for me. I tended to hit anything that was mounted on it with my left heel. Not sure what I'll do with it, maybe put it on the passenger side if I ever get a set of seat jackers for the passenger side.

 

Anyone want to sell their seat jackers??

 

For me 100% yes. I'm 6'2 and would always get "numb legs" on road trips. These made a huge difference. The new seat angle took some getting used to, but I don't notice it anymore. You can get knockoff versions for cheap, but I wanted to support the business that invented them, so paid for that. No regrets.

 

I've read suggestions for using a stack of fender washers to do the same thing. Might be a good way to "test it out".

 

If you go for seat jackers, be prepared to lift the rears as well. I found 1 1/4" front and about 1/2" in the rear is good for me. I used steel washers to tweak the rear up to my preferred angle, but that's not the safest option.

 

Totally worth it.

 

Had them in for a couple months. I’ve never considered removing them. It does make access into the cab tighter but the seat comfort makes it worth it
