Raising the Seat - Short people need love too

gwtill · Sep 30, 2016

I was planning to put a small 1/2" spacer under my 2017 Limited driver's seat and get a 1/2" longer bolt to install it with but when I removed the first bolt to measure it I was really surprised. The threads on the bolt are two different sizes on the same bolt. The final 3/8" inch of the bolt is smaller than the rest of the bolt. Never seen anything like it and have no idea where to find a replacement.

Any ideas???

I have a 17 SR5 doublecab and I wrongfully assumed there would be a hand crank to raise and lower the seat. Most cars today have that if they don't have a power seat. I'm short and would really like to raise the seat an inch. Anyone tried this ad have any advice?

Thank you el_zorro1 for the link. That looks perfect. Obviously NHTSA will not like the spacers, but they aren't driving the thing every day.
