Long Trip Wife Hates the Seat

Get a new one.

 

My wife hates the entire truck.....never mentioned the seat though.

 

I bought mine from a guy on her but you can easily make them from trailer bushings. Cut the bushing to 1 1/2" and get a bolt that's that much longer.

 

Man, Freud would have a hey-day with that statement!

 

if shes complaining about the head rests i had similar problems, you can fix it by removing the headrest, wrap one of its legs in a cloth, and insert into a vice. using the top of the headrest to push on forward, and pull the 'free leg' towards you with your other hand. this will bend back the leg thats in the vice. do this for the other leg now. you only need to move it a little and when you reinstall the headrest will be tilted back a few inches, adjust to your liking.

whip lash crashes yadda yadda yadda it will be far more comfortable and is safer than turning the headrest 180 degrees or removing it.

 

Make her ride in the bed next time. She'll never bitch about the seats again.

 

Same here. I added 3/8 spacers and the angle is much better now.

I really don't get how the head rest is a problem unless the seat is angled forward or straight up and down. Your wives must like an uncomfortable seat position which is causing an uncomfortable head rest situation. Tell your wives to lean the seat back more. Problem solved.

 

Not having any sort of cover for the bed, we had to put everything in the back seat. She couldn't recline the seat. Normally (in our old SUV), she would put the seat nearly all the way back, goto sleep and I'd wake her up when we got to the destination.
