    2025 prices, including spacers, bolts, instructions and free shipping are $35 by Priority box for 1 seat. $60 Priority box for 2 seats. These fit 2005-2023 Tacoma, FJ Cruiser, 2007-2021 Tundra, 2006-2018 RAV4, 2003-2024 4runner, 2014-2019 Highlander and some Sequoia models. I now only make them when I receive enough requests. I am fully retired and this is hobby work. I used to keep a stock of spacers by making ~70 pairs per month. Now my priorities have changed, material and shipping has increased, and I devote ~3 weeks each month assisting my elderly parents.
    For those, Tacoma and FJ Cruiser owners, that showed interest in and/or have purchased my original QuikFix™ bucket seat rear spacers, which are now obsolete after 4.5 years of sales, I am now making my next gen spacers with my SAF-T-LOK bracket pocket that locks the bracket in place. These are the first and only spacers made with a pocket that fits the bottom contour of the rear brackets of bucket seats. Even without bolts you cannot remove these new spacers without lifting the seat. The bracket sits "in" the spacer. All other rear bracket spacers made only let the bracket sit "on" top of the spacer. These are by far the safest spacer in the entire spacer market. They are slightly smaller, still provide 1" of lift, still assist over the dash vision and provide the same under seat amp storage. They are slightly forward of my originals thus are less noticeable to the rear passengers.
    For those with questions here are the facts. These are the 1st, and ONLY, spacers designed to safely fit the exact shape of the bracket mounting base and eliminate the possibility of brackets shifting in an accident. Osteopaths and Chiropractors do recommend that, in vehicles, your hips should be aligned with your knees. Some say slightly lower. Some say slightly higher. Most already know your hips are too low in Tacoma and FJ Cruiser factory seats thus the popularity of rear bracket spacers. I can link tons of documents supporting this. These are not a mod. They are a seat and spine corrective measure to prevent or overcome lower back issues from the poor ergonomic factory seat position. If you want to kick up your knees and recline then do that at home in your La-Z-Boy. You would be surprised at how many people have ditched the "follow-the-leader mod" front jackers and replaced them with rear bracket spacers. If you stand next to your truck and look at the factory seat angle it is very obvious that they sit too low under your rear end.

    I have always sold out since 2019. Sometimes it may take a little longer but I never have extras. I now limit the quantities since, paying income tax on sales, it messes with my retirement at tax time.

    I currently have 20 extra pairs (minus some already sold) finished however I ran out of the 45 mm long bolts. I have more bolts arriving next weekend. The 45 mm bolts give ~3/4" of grip in the floor. I do have 5 pairs of 40 mm bolts, that give ~17/32" grip. If anyone is interested in using the shorter bolts then I can ship 5 pairs with those tomorrow. Otherwise it will be next Monday (9/11/23) before I can start shipping. Just pm me. Thank you.
    NOTE: I will be out of town between Tuesday afternoon (9/5) and Friday evening (9/8). I will make 1 post office drop before I leave town Tuesday. Otherwise shipping will resume on Monday 9/11 with the longer bolts.

    Lol i think he's saying seats without ANY spacers are worse for your back. These are just a little more custom, so they fit together more cleanly than the typical spacer blocks we use.

    I already have some so no need to replace, but these are definitely a decent option for someone looking for spacers.
