Thanks for the video. Much easier mod than adding a bunch of washers under the mounts.

Great video, I mounted an amplifier for a subwoofer back there and needed easier access to it. This will help out a ton!

Best version of a Ram 2500 quad cab rear seat mod/fix I've seen yet! Reason being I want to put my XM 177 e2 back there. Just didn't want to mod it in just any fashion. Was going with raising the seat but didn't want to change the height geometry although it wouldn't be bad because I have a big amp under the seat and raising it would help keep it running cooler. Decisions, decisions??? 🤤😂

Another option is to raise both rear seats by 3/4 inch .. just need longer bolts and a metal or wood spacer. This way you could return to factory if you wanted.

@DieselLegiance 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah I thought about doing it that way but was worried about the seat not being fully secured for safety and losing head room. But absolutely, spacers would work.

@davidmueller2780 Жыл бұрын

Only problem is back seat won’t lock in if you raise the seat

@DieselLegiance Жыл бұрын

True, so if you need a speaker box for example that requires you to add spacers, I would suggest adding spacers first and then cut small adjustments as needed.

@djmjr77 Жыл бұрын

Actually, as long as you haven't cut the seat holding bracket, the 3/4 inch raise will lock and allow you to fold the seat down if you want.. did it to my truck

@djmjr77 Жыл бұрын

And just for clarity.. I used 3/4 inch plywood which is technically 23/32 in the states. Just in case the measurement diff matters ..

Hey brother nice video. quick question are the seats able to fold flat or only as far as your folded em in the video?

@DieselLegiance Жыл бұрын

They don’t fold flat as the seats were not designed that way but if you need it for hauling something it may compress flatter with weight on top.

It should, but you can also achieve the same result by adding spacers under your seat where the seat mounts to the floor. Either way works.

What keeps the seat backs from flying forward during a hard brake without the latches?

@DieselLegiance 2 жыл бұрын

The latch still hooks on. When you lift the bottom seat up it look fits the back latch up too. When you trim the back latch just a little shorter, when the bottom seat lifts it lifts the top latch just enough to unhook.

I’m not sure. If you take the rear baffle off it’s possible but I have not tried to confirm. I was thinking more of mounting a hard foam pad to custom cut out spots for an AR or pistol.

What’s there to talk about. It’s a leather seat cover. I nicked the cover with the grinder as I was not paying good enough attention and no one sees the back of the seat anyways. Everything else was fine. I even stated this in the description of the video. I’m not perfect and never claimed to be. I make mistakes like everyone me else. 👍🏼
