    For those that have requested that I make more spacers I just ordered material to make another run for you. I am hoping to start shipping by 2/7/24. I always appreciate the interest. Moving forward I will only make these when I receive enough requests. I will no longer have a running stock posted for sale. As previously posted materials and shipping have increased. If I do need to increase the price I assure you it will be a very insignificant increase.

    To clear up the confusion between my rear QuikFix spacers and the "jackers" I am now naming mine "JACKAZZ by QuikFix". The name pretty much sums up what my spacers do. They jack up your posterior. I am currently working on a new logo for this. QuikFix has been my trademark since 2016 when I started with QuikFix grips to install over the slick little radio knobs. I am also copyrighting the name "JACKLEG" in the event that I begin making front bracket spacers once again. I made front prototypes back in 2019, not like "jackers", but never followed through with production. I have no immediate plans to resume making front spacers.

    I will add you to the no obligation wait list. I have material sawed. This weekend I have to help my son replace his rear suspension on his 2012 Taco weather permitting. Then I can start production of the spacers. Figure they will start shipping ~FEB 7th. I will message you with updates.

    Finished 40 pairs 2 days ago. I am down to 10 pairs. If you are on the waiting list then act quickly. Any not sold by Friday evening will go on eBay.

    I am already building a new waiting list. Once I have enough requests I will order material to make another 35-40 pairs. If anyone wants to be added to the list then please pm me and include your email address. This will speed up notification to those who do not frequent forums or facebook groups daily.

    For those that are on the current waiting list it appears this list is a slow build. It may be mid to late March building enough names to buy material. This is not a problem for me as I planned to greatly reduce shop time for 2024.

    UPDATE: Sorry to say that no more names have been added over the last 2 weeks. Maybe in April there will be a long enough list to make more. I appreciate the interest however I cannot justify buying material at this time.

    Not sending out individual pm's yet. Just posting that I will saw and start 35-40 pairs this weekend. None will be ready to ship until I finish all of them. Have to entertain family on Easter. Will be rolling on the machines M-T-W-T and taking off next Friday. Probably start shipping around 4/12/24. Will send pm's/emails to those on the waiting list when I get them finished and polished.

    I'm having a hard time understanding how I'd get an extra 150 lbs of back stress?

    And is it really "safer"?

    The weak point is the bolt breaking (insanely huge impact) that I doubt a tiny little divot would have much influence on.

    The bottom of the truck where it attaches is flat.

    It just sounds like a lot of marketing for a block of metal.

    I can see "lift the back of the seat for a more comfortable ride"

    I am absolutely a fan of a quality product and nicely machines parts,

    But all the rest of the speil on top makes it sound like a snake oil salesman.

    No snake oil. Everything I stated comes from 5 years of research. The 150 pounds of added back stress is a quote from a New York chiropractor that is a repeat customer. In fact I just added my 4th chiropractor as a customer. The recommended seating angle is the consensus or worldwide osteopaths, chiropractors, car insurance companies and tire companies. Safer means that the weight of your body holds mine in place without the bolts installed. Sitting in a pocket spacer is safer than sitting on top of a flat spacer. The bolts are stronger than the factory bolts. Your factory seat bolts require less force to shear than the bolts I provide. Many images that I use are copied from osteopath and chiropractor web sites. Maybe spend some time google searching instead of criticizing my product. If you want references then send me a pm. I have a ton of web sites that support my claims. I bet the "jacker" guys cannot provide 1 reference to support their product.

    I got my spacers in the mail Wednesday night. I was leaving Thursday morning for a 3 hour trip so I looked over the instructions and it seemed pretty straight forward so I went ahead and installed them. Super easy to do. I torqued everything to specs and sat in the truck and it felt noticeably different. I messed around with positioning and mirror adjustments and went to bed. Headed out early Thursday morning and spent 3 hours straight in the truck. What a difference....no low back pain or hamstring tightness that I would get prior to installing the jackers. Definitely recommend this mod. Simple, cheap and a noticeable improvement. I hope they stay in production because I am 100% recommending these to any of my patients who drive a 3rd gen.

    I always appreciate the positive feedback. I would like to note that this same low rear seat pan angle exists in all 2005-2023 Tacoma bucket seat models as well as all 2007-2014 FJ Cruiser models. The majority of sales have always been in the FJ Cruiser market. My Tacoma sales lost a lot of steam with the market of the new "cool mod" front seat spacers. For some reason people think a reclined driving position is better than a level ergonomic position. I can say that I have made quite a few sales to those that found discomfort after using the "other" brand of front lift spacers. Thanks again.

    If anyone is interested I have 2 extra pairs from this weeks run of spacers. I won't have more available for 2 or 3 weeks.
