    I've had a 2020 Tacoma trdor for a little over a month now and you are exactly right. The pedal commander and seat jackers are must haves. I saw the seat jackers on amazon and thought it was an over priced joke until I read the reviews so I got one and WOW!!! It's hard to describe but it feels so much better.

    I got 2 sets for $30 total on ebay. Same quality. Time to go see if my legs hit the steering wheel. Crazy what every little company wants for these mods. About to take off my emblems so I don't have to buy a black emblem cover kit. Still have to get a new head unit and rock sliders. New wheels, all terrain tires, front grill, and paint matched bumper ends so far. You buy a truck and spend 6k on upgrades immediately lol. 3rd gens.

    I got mine in the mail today, can’t wait to install them tomorrow, these leather seats in 2023 don’t adjust high enough in front either, my 202 with cloth seats seemed ok, like they went up a tad higher and so did the lumbar, maybe having heated seats now messes with how far these things can be adjusted. Can’t wait to get mine installed seeing your face on this video afterwards tells me I’ll love it just like pedal commander.

    I’m installing mine in a few minutes.
    We’ve noticed that the passenger seat is Way too low so I bought some spacers for the rear of the front passenger seat as well as the front seat jacket for both of the front seats.

  • @Hbear47437
    @Hbear47437 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I bought the front seat jackets before my new Tacoma even arrived. I did it for the same reason. I read a lot of reviews about the angle of the seat - even with the powered seat and realized I would need them so I could be at a comfortable angle. They are great.

  • @ToddSusanneMelton
    @ToddSusanneMelton 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I experienced exactly what you described in that the front of the seat just does not raise enough. I test drove a 2023 Limited a few days ago and within 15 min, my lower back was getting sore. I explained to the sales person that I just can't get the front of the seat up high enough. It was electric of course with the Limited and I sure had it cranked all the way up. If I decide to pull the trigger on the 2023 instead of waiting for the 2024, I will order these ASAP. I sure hope they have addressed this issue in the 2024 and made it more like chair height seating. I test drove a Frontier and it was like that. Much more comfortable. And.......I am only 5' 9"

    I have had seat jackers on my 2019 trd sport for a couple of years now. My truck as you probably know doesn't have power seats. Toyota cheapest out on the quality of the seats. I also had the foam upgrades for comfort, because after a hundred or so miles on a trip my back hurt because of the seats position and the lack of proper cushion. Lots better since I did the mods!!! Still could be better. Love my Taco otherwise.

      @@RobMotive you're going to be surprised then because the guys from TFL who are 6'3"ish said it was a lot more comfortable than the third gen. I'm 6'2" so I made sure to look out for that part of the reviews and they all said it was more comfortable and their head wasn't in the ceiling any longer.

    Well that is a big difference and definitely will give you a lot more play with the electric seat. You'll have to do a review down the road. As much as I hate to admit, it took me a long time to find the perfect sitting position even with the power seat and I still adjust every now and them. Nice install, looks like a non fear one for me 😅

    I was going to install these but there is no way I can remove my driver seat bolts. I've used a 14 mm socket and 3/4 driver with long handle applied all the force I can, not one of mine move. To try any more pressure could create a problem by breaking or stripping I'm afraid. After researching the net I see some have indeed stripped bolts creating problems. I'm thinking some Tacoma models may have permanent loctite and I'm not about to take a torch to the bolts in my new truck to melt the loctite.

    I’m looking for seat jackers to raise my passenger side seat by about 2-3” because it sits too low.
    I’ll be buying a set for the front of the driver’s seat as the power seat is fine, but when the seat is raised, the front of the seat actually lowers.

    Ok Rob Im 5-10 and w/o the Jackers and the front raised up tp where I like it my legs always hit the steering wheel. If I put in the Jackers and adjust Im afraid I wont be able to get out. 2022 TRD 10 way seat. I already did the passenger seat both front and rear and the wife loves them. Are your legs hitting when entering and existing? This is even when the steering wheel is in the up most position.
