    Many have complained about the front seats on their trucks. My2014 with stock seats was also uncomfortable. I noticed that it particularly bothers the backs of my thighs and my hips. So I decided that the seat sloped downward at the rear too much. I was looking for something to use to lift the rears of the seat when I ran across this guy. I ordered tow sets of his seat spacers for $30 on a Friday with standard shipping. They shipped that day from California and where in my mailbox Monday afternoon in Sunny? Central Florida.

    15 minutes to install and I am very pleased. I'm short (5'6") and they raise me up. My view is better and the pressure is off my thighs and hips.
    But now I find that the mirror relocate from ImMrYo is needed and just ordered that.

    I had seen a few threads lately about seats and thought I'd throw this out as a cheap alternative to a reupholster job.

    Good link. Sargent's did that to mine along with the re-padding and it makes a big difference.

    One of the first mods on my truck. The one inch made a big difference in comfort. Very happy with the improvement. Still would like to try inch and a half just to see if it would be better or too high.
