Tremor front seat position

[D Fresh]

I literally pushed all the buttons in the dealer parking lot, then had to break out the manual to put it l back so i could drive home, lol.

I'm 6'2 and my preference is one notch from all the way back, seat all the way down, and leaned back just a bit from straight up. Steering wheel out just a bit and up.

Hope you find a way to be comfortable. I had to play with it a bit to make it "fit".

My 2021 Lariat does the same thing, no adjustment at the rear. I'm 6'0" and I initially liked it this way, but then I realized I couldn't rest my arms on the armrests and hold the steering wheel, so I eventually moved my seat more forward.

Thanks. Unless someone has a better idea, this is what I will end up doing.

phonebook?

6'5" here. I have to have the seat all the way back. If I raised the seat, my head would be scraping the roof. What's wrong with the seat feeling like a car? You are still above most cars on the road.

Sit in a TACO for an hour then get back into your Ranger...problem went away...?

I guess this is where I am glad I got the manual adjusting seats with the funky pump action up and down lever for height. I can move the seat up or down regardless of front to back position.

New here. Just bought a 22 Lariat Tremor. Love it! I’m 6’1” and like the seat all the way back. However, in that position the seat is so low it feels like I’m driving a car. Who has remedied this issue successfully? Would love to hear from you.

I was very apprehensive about buying 8 "scraps" of metal with a couple of bolts for $160, to replace what is essentially part of the safety gear on the truck, and only gain 3/4" of height in the front of the seat brackets.

Sounds like BS, right?

For me, it was worth it. The seats are much more comfortable, now. Check out the other reviews and testimonials under the description on the website. I agree with almost every one of them.
The cnc work on the parts was precise and finished as smooth as glass, for a part that you will only see again when you're vacuuming the floor mats.

You remove the front seat bolts, loosen the rear to give you a little slack to tip the seat back. Slide the seat jackers in place under the seat bracket. Apply thread locker to the new, provided, longer bolts and torque to specification in the front; reapply thread locker to the rear and torque 'em down.

I hope you already found these, but maybe the link will help someone else who finds this forum post.

Take care.

Hey Kevin, I'm not too far from you. my 19 seats seem to go up and down when it's all the way back. maybe Ford changed something due to "supply constraints" We're not too far from each other. I'd be happy to meet up and compare. I was thinking of stopping by Griot's garage this weekend anyway.
let me know.

I'm 6'5, and my 22' Tremor XLT seems to have full motion (up/down/forward/backward).

Naturally, I keep the seat all the way 'back and down', but I wish the seat would be 'down' even more, as it still sits high. These brackets would do the opposite of what I want?

Yes, they would raise the front of the seat 3/4" which tilts the seat back a little from stock. It's like leaning back in a rocking chair; you're a little more reclined and the seat touches (supports) behind your knees, which makes it feel like the seat is a little further from the ground (or that you have more room from the knees down).

I'm going to be ordering these as well. I need a bit more support under my knees due to arthritis. My wife's GC Trailhawk seats are amazing at support. I find the Tremor seats a bit lacking in the area at the front of the seat.

Try driving one for 3 years. I'm still going to the chiropractor from those darn seats!
