This thread is humongous and is probably only 10% of peeps on this forum and 1% of all Ford Ranger owners.

So by my goes-in toos, I figure we power the world's economy with all the stuff we buy!

Got these Seat Jackers today. Not many people complain about the Ranger seats and I learned about these when I was looking at Tacos. Evidently their seats suck and people swear by these Seat Jackers.

I have no complaints but wanted to see what it would mean for a short guy on a long trip! =D

They also make this nifty front multi-mount panel (molle) for mounting stuff at seat level. Might get that for a small fire extinguisher:

Next I may need to order pedal extenders—just not sure which to go for ... =D

Same here. I was thinking about using some thick high grade washers to do the same thing, but these look much nicer and look like they would do a better job.
Now I hafta go and get a pair !!! :handsinair:
Even more amazing is how some are able to find this stuff !!! :clap:

How short do you need to be to need these? I have to put the seat all the way back and slightly reclined to fit comfortably.

Reading their web site, I gather it just gives a better seat position.
I'm not too short, but I like to sit high, and with my seat all the way up, it's OK, but I feel like I'm "leaning forward" even with the seat front up. These look like they will raise the front to a more comfortable position where my knees are a bit higher than my tush.
Hay, for $80 bucks it's worth a try....spend more than that on a good meal for two now-a-days.
Also, cheaper than a tank of gas !
subquark....a review is necessary...ASAP !!!

Go sign up for their newsletter. They sent me a code for 5% off. Not much, but will probably cover shipping.

Had them for about 3000 miles. Work great. Leans you back a tad. I didn't have a problem with the seat in factory configuration, but I like to try new things. I like to sit as low to the floor as possible. I'm 5'9, so definitely not tall. I like to feel like I'm sitting in the truck, rather than on it.

I also have the bracket for the front. I'm working on things to hang on there still, so its a work in progress.

Good info...
I'm also 5'9", but I like to sit high. Think these will set the seat to more of a "recline" position which is fine for me on long drives...towing our travel trailer usually involves 300-350 miles...5-6 hours at a stretch.

The real intent of these is to angle the seat back for more leg support. But I've never seen anyone complain about the Ranger's seats.

I learned about these for use on Tacomas where people say they really help on longer trips.

Here's Chloe Kuo doing an install and talking about them:
