Drivers Seat Uncomfortable

[bigb]

Do you guys with the seat jackers have manual seats? Would a 10 way power seat benefit from seat jackers?

Have you done any mods or found any aftermarket products to solve your seat issues? I have the exact same problems, especially the narrow bolsters

can you put a thin pillow or some type of padding to lift you up for now?

I have tried every position that seat will go into and nothing seems to help.
I like the truck but this pissing me off.

I think your problem is one similar to a friend of mine, not a ranger though. The seats width puts his leg on the taller outer edge cushion (he has wider hips than I do and about 20lbs on me I'm 215) and puts additional pressure on his leg. He bought a gel cushion that fit inside of the edge of the seat which raised and cushioned just the center portion and he said it helped a lot as it raised the center portion of the seat and his back side off the higher edge. Try a small cushion before dropping a lot of money if works, then you can get an idea of which way to go like having a permanent pad installed in the seat!

The seat jackers attach to the truck where the seats mount, so it doesn't matter if the seats are manual or 10 way power adjustable. I have the 10 way power adjustable seats and mounted the seat jackers with no issues.

I've had them on now for 9 months and they solved all my seat discomfort problems.

I guess I am asking why would you need seat jackers if you have a 10 way seat? Can't you get the same elevation with the 10 way seat?

The power adjustable seat can't quite tilt you back far enough to relieve the pressure that builds on some peoples' legs. It's not the seat back, but the part you sit on. It needs to tilt up a little more in the front to provide the proper, supportive, position for your legs and back. This is not true for all body shapes, but it was definitely true for me. I'm 6'0 with about a 32" inseam. Search for "seat jackers" on the web and you can find more information on why this helps with seat comfort, especially on long drives. All I can say is that it solved the problem for me.

I have had to drive with a cushion since I bought the truck. I feel like you sit too far down in a hole. I’m a pretty little dude though. So I basically sit between the bolsters.

And yes, I have the power adjustable seats.
