Honestly, if folks want to be technical about the comfort, the seat jackers raise the angle of the front which allows your hip and butt to be more secure in the seat very similar to bucket seats in a car. I practically drove 5000 miles with them in the past month and I must say my back has never felt better on a long drive! Thanks again Chloe for making these awesome reviews!
I love this mod! I lifted both seats, including the front and 0.75” on the rear. I also added the molle panels to both seats to mount stuff on. I’m relatively short, so this was perfect for me.
Hi Jim, were you having back pain before you lifted the seats? I was also thinking about lifting the front and rear of the seat. Now that you have had them in your truck for a while, is your opinion still the same? Why did you lift the front and the back? Thanks!
Got a set for my 3rd gen. Had them For a few months now and I like them. Did an 8hr road trip from CA to AZ with stops every couple hrs and my back wasn’t totally destroyed so all in all they were worth it for me. My gf didn’t notice them at first but after that trip she saw the benefits. Although Pricey these are high quality CNC pieces of billet metal with high quality hardware to match and made in the USA, not some cast aluminum Crap made in China that will get you killed in a car accident.
It’s hard to believe such a slight change in seat angle makes such a difference. A bigger, much more amazing difference is the KDMax ECU tune. Do a KDMax Tacoma tune review pls.
I think I'm trying these, one thing I don't like about my truck is the seating position, it feels like a sports car with the seats too close to the floor, which for long trips sucks, they kinda expensive but if they do fix the problem might as well worth it..
I don't have these yet, but I am going to order them very soon for my wife's Tacoma. I have a 4runner trd pro and plan on ordering some seat jackers for it also even though the ergonomics are different in the 4runner, and plus I would like to also be able to mount the air compressor under my seat. I enjoy watching your informative videos and all the different mods and accessories you review. A question for you? have you done any research on the peddle commander? I have watched some other TH-cam channels about it and most of the reviews have been positive. Just curious if that is a mod you might review in the future? Thank you for the great reviews on all the accessories you installed and given honest feedback on.
I have not tried the pedal commander so unfortunately I don't have any advice about it. I have heard mixed things about them including throwing a check engine light though
@@ChloeKuo thank you! Seat jackers will be ordered this week, and my wife and I really like the Seat covers you installed in your Tacoma, and my wife custom designed some Seat covers from the website you received yours from. Her Seat covers should be arriving in about 8 ir 9 weeks! She is very excited!! Hope your Seat covers are holding up well? Thank you again for all great reviews of the mods you have installed on your truck!!
Ordered me a set for the front and rear jackers with molle panel. Gonna take a long trip up to yellowstone. Hopefully this helps with seeing over the hood scoop as well
Love your video!Thanks for the info! I have shrunk from a spinal cord injury and need lift around 2" rise like I had in my 2004 gmc truck. Would front and rear spacers help? It is on a 2022 TUNDRA 3RD GEN. Thanks for all replies! Ed
Hey! I was looking into getting these but with the usd to cad conversion its a little steep lol. any chance you have a new discount code for a Canadian subscriber?
The threaded holes are used to mount other accessories. If you rewatch the video, you will see that Chloe used the threaded holes to mount a fire extinguisher to the base of the passenger seat.
I think it depends on what you are going for. The rear Seat Jackers give a more commanding angle (which I like for off roading and better visibility because I am only 5'5) but the fronts are more for leg comfort. You can do just the front, just the rear, or both!
I've had mine in my 2020 O/R (with power seats) for over 6 months now and they are incredible. I'm about 6'2" and it definitely improves under-leg and thigh support. Doesn't really lift you up higher, and being relatively tall I still have room and even with the sun roof there are no issues.
Just installed on my 21 trd off road driver side, game changer! Had to order another pair for the passenger side! Such a improvement from stock and super easy to install! Highly recommend this product
Have had them on both passenger and driver, absolutely love them, purchased after seeing them on your first video, nothing but good things to say about them. Especially the ability to store things under the seats and cleaning under there is much easier now too.
I love mine. Had them for several months! I have a 20' TRD-S so it has the power seats. I'm 6ft even and most of that is leg length. I wouldn't have it any other way. Even did the front passenger seat as well. Both have them in the front and I used the max lift seat jacker for the rear on the driver side (1inch) . Minor adjustments, but it made driving Riverside to Phoenix and back comfortable for me. These things are worth their weight and you can see and feel how stout they are in their craftsmanship. Built etc in the Las Vegas area, the customer service is on point. I highly recommend this mod and their products hands down.
I just installed a pair of front seat jackers on my 2019 Off-Road this weekend. At first, I thought it felt strange, but after a few days of commuting back and forth from work, I appreciated the leg support. It feels better under your knees and makes your butt sit in the chairs in a more supportive, cradled position. I asked my daughter who is 4' 11" to sit in the passenger side without telling her what I did, and she said she likes it and instantly remarked about the support under her knees. Overall it's a positive mod for the seats. This was a good recommendation. Thanks Chloe!
It’s totally worth it!!! Got both front and back seat jackers!!! Love them I’m 5ft tall yes so I could barely see over my dash 🤷🏻♀️ after I got a great view and fit comfortably!!!
I bought them and I didn't really like them for my Gen 2. I felt like the steering wheel was too low and close to my knees. It also gave me back issues but I heard good things from other people.
Make sure you have enough room between your legs and the steering wheel. I have about a little over an inch of space. If I installed this my legs would touch the steering wheel. My wheel is tilted to the highest point.
Nice work taco socal girl wow I love it. I'll been a tundra guy, but watching your video I want a Tacoma TRD now I just subscribe to your channel keep it 💯
Oh she’s a bad girl I see! 😂Using a regular socket on an impact. Not gonna lie, I didn’t think she was a real truck girl, but as soon as I saw the chrome vanadium socket on that impact drill, I knew she was legit!
I know this is an old video, but can anyone confirm that these are really 7075? The Desert Does it website says they are made of 6061 and it would concern me that the bolts would strip over time
I installed them and they helped my legs, but then I started messing with the seat and steering wheel settings around and my body aches each time I drive, so I am still trying to figure out better positions.
If I only install the front jackers, is there any concern about bending the seat rail in the back when I tighten those back down after installing the fronts? Just didn't want to bend the brackets.
Love my seat jackers and MMP!! Only thing that sucks is with the taller seat position (I have front and rear) it’s hard to see traffic lights. I need to duck 😂 fault of the truck and not the seat jackers though
They are expensive but thinking of the consequences if I go cheap, these things make the difference. The long drives I had when I had drill weekend (500 miles) round trip, same when I drove from Cali to Texas.
Would think lifting both the front and back would offset the purpose, so I decided to only do the back of the seat and love it. My wife on the other hand, before I told her, noticed the difference and hated it. Oh well.
If you only use front jackers when the rears are bolted down do they still sit flat to the floor or do they get bent while bolting down to the floor? Thanks
Did you do any mod to lift the rear of the seats? I’ve been reading a lot about people with lower back pain having to lift the back of the seat and not the front of the seat. Did you ever experience that lower back pain?
Awesome video!! Just ordered using your discount code. Thank you so much for the amazing informative videos and can’t wait to install this game changing mod :)!
Wow I can't believe I never thought of this mod. I have had a 2016 TRD sport for 2 years now and literally my only complaint is that the seats are uncomfortable on long drives. I was thinking about getting padded seat covers or something but this actually makes a lot more sense to adjust the seat angle. Kind of like the nissan titan "Zero Gravity" seats which is just marketing for a more reclined angle to put less pressure on your legs
I have these and they great and spacers in back. Longer drives make a big difference in comfort. Might do the passenger side. Chloe has some great videos and have done a couple of her mods and no regrets.
Great review!! I am about to recover the front seats on my daughter’s 2012 Tacoma and I’m definitely gonna install these while I have the seats out. Thank you for your efforts on this video.
OK Chloe, I just ordered a set of seat jackers. Let’s see if they are worth the hype.. I was thing since i have power seats that they wouldn’t offer much, but it seems that i may have been mistaken.
If the product was considered to possibly contribute to injuries, or exacerbate injuries caused during a front on, or roll over accident, there’s no way it would be sold. Manufacturers & aftermarket sellers would face huuuuuuuuge damages payouts if that were case. Just be careful with raising the front part of your seat, as long term sitting in that particular position, can cause stress on the lower lumbar region of your back and what I call ‘muscle lock’ of the hip flexor muscles at the top of your thighs. I’m in my 50’s and have to get out of my vehicle once an hour to stretch my back & leg muscles, on long trips. You may not feel it now because you’re young. Good luck.
Boxing !, good for you . Would of never guessed. I love the sport of Boxing & Taco’s At 5ft 10 the seat height of my 2019 seems just right so gladly I need no mods.
boxing?! I had to check for videos of you boxing...I found on this channel. Nice job. Love to see people, not just staying fit, but actually competing.
I feel like my steering wheel is already too low on the highest setting. Will the jackers make the steering wheel feel even lower? Also, will this take away from rear seat leg space?
I put a set in my 2013...I like it but it causes the seat to cut the circulation off to my heel of all places. I thing I will add a set of risers to the rear of the seat to help even things out. Anyone else have this issue?
Another great video I like this product a lot I hope it helps me with my problem I'm 5 11 and I can't get comfortable in my seat so I ordered 2 sets . I'll see if all the reviews & videos are true and do a update later on. Keep up the great videos
If you rest your arm/elbow on the door that little extra height (lowering your elbow contact point) could be all you needed to alleviate your should pain. For me this is a big factor if I rest my arm on a center console or arm rest that’s a bit too high. 😊✌🏻

I bought and installed this for my ‘18 TRD off road just this week and BOY IT IS NIGHT AND DAY!!! My legs feel great now after a road trip.
A night and day difference in the comfort level of the seats. Great video as always. Thank you for the information.
Got a set for my 3rd gen. Had them
For a few months now and I like them. Did an 8hr road trip from CA to AZ with stops every couple hrs and my back wasn’t totally destroyed so all in all they were worth it for me.

Agreed! The price is in the quality
Just installed these in my wife's 2021 TRD off road, well worth the money.
Just received and installed on my 2022 TRD Sport. Love em!
It’s hard to believe such a slight change in seat angle makes such a difference.

If I have my Toyota Tacoma through the winter I will be getting them In The spring.
It does seem to make for a good change.
I tried em but removed them I liked the seating position but hated losing the clearance from my legs under the steering wheel
Give em to me :)
@@Fakingittilimakeit Already returned them

They work great

Great video!!
Any new info on locking fuel door for the new tacoma's, should have been a standard feature.
Have you ever had any problems when you're splash guards for your Toyota
Hey! I was looking into getting these but with the usd to cad conversion its a little steep lol. any chance you have a new discount code for a Canadian subscriber?
what are the threaded holes in the front of the seat jackers used for?
The threaded holes are used to mount other accessories. If you rewatch the video, you will see that Chloe used the threaded holes to mount a fire extinguisher to the base of the passenger seat.
I need my seats lowered!
I just want the rear jackers, will that make a big difference or i have to buy the whole set?
I think it depends on what you are going for. The rear Seat Jackers give a more commanding angle (which I like for off roading and better visibility because I am only 5'5) but the fronts are more for leg comfort. You can do just the front, just the rear, or both!

How dare they not use 10MM bolts
IS THAT A ST BERDOODLE DOGGY???

I was wondering if they were needed on the 2020! I’m about 6’3 so I might get some too 👍
@@fskrisfx like someone else said, it really depends on your torso height. But it's DEFINITELY more comfortable and supportive.
How's the space between your knees and the steering wheel after doing this?
@@joerota6654 it's close, but I like it that way. The wheel could also be raised up and telescoped in.
Did you put them on the rear of the seat too?
My seat risers cost me 50k. It did come with a free TRD PRO however.
$100 for just one set yikes, but my last long trip wasn’t so uncomfortable maybe if I have the money I might try it
Just installed on my 21 trd off road driver side, game changer! Had to order another pair for the passenger side! Such a improvement from stock and super easy to install!
Highly recommend this product
Yup.
Bought some after seeing Chloe's first video.
Great investment.
Definitely noticed the ease on the legs.

It’s totally worth it!!! Got both front and back seat jackers!!! Love them I’m 5ft tall yes so I could barely see over my dash 🤷🏻♀️ after I got a great view and fit comfortably!!!
I’m 5’1, did you also get the back seat jackers?
I bought them and I didn't really like them for my Gen 2. I felt like the steering wheel was too low and close to my knees. It also gave me back issues but I heard good things from other people.
I like to know more of the fire extinguiser mount you have there and what size is the extinguiser to make it fit hopefully it slides out easily
I believe I have 1 1/4" lift in the front and a 1/2" in the back. Once I landed on the combo I have not looked back. These lifts are outstanding.
They aren't cheap, but best mod for the money in my opinion, especially for 2nd gen taco owners
Make sure you have enough room between your legs and the steering wheel. I have about a little over an inch of space. If I installed this my legs would touch the steering wheel. My wheel is tilted to the highest point.
I have had my seat jackets in my 2018 TRD for about a year and they are great, best mod so far.
Nice work taco socal girl wow I love it. I'll been a tundra guy, but watching your video I want a Tacoma TRD now I just subscribe to your channel keep it 💯

Such a game changer, I'm still surprised how much these made a difference in my 18'!

Love my seat jackers and MMP!!

In that case, it pays to be short 😅😅
@@ChloeKuo haha for sure!
I was skeptical of the difference these would make, but on your recommendation I bought a set and the difference is night and day 👍

They are expensive but thinking of the consequences if I go cheap, these things make the difference. The long drives I had when I had drill weekend (500 miles) round trip, same when I drove from Cali to Texas.

Thanks! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your content…. ❤🛻❤
safety of seat jackers crashes are not safe dont do a crash , but the jackers are not gonna change safety at all , b safe out there

I think there are a few companies making these now...
But I just got a 2021 with the power drivers seat that can be raised, lowered, etc., so, 🤯.
I have heard about someone 3D printing some. That doesn't sound safe to me lol
DesertDoesIt rocks !
So you don't recommend rear seat jackers?
Hi! Chloe, wondering if you have seen a video from tech triumph 11 days ago, about the new 2024 taco yoda, called the trail hunter sounds awesome.
OK Chloe, I just ordered a set of seat jackers. Let’s see if they are worth the hype.. I was thing since i have power seats that they wouldn’t offer much, but it seems that i may have been mistaken.

I can't find it for my Tundra:(
Installed ‘’seat jackers’’ yesterday,quick ,easy and they made a great improvement in comfort. Recommend this simple mod! 👍🏻🇺🇸
Not a Tacoma owner, but I do have a 3rd Gen 4Runner and I found out about these through this video and boy did they make a big difference.
Anyone got a distributor or manufacturer of seat Jack's for Hilux GUN125?
I know nothing about trucks but saw her in an ad and thought she was cute. Only reason im here😂
boxing?! I had to check for videos of you boxing...I found on this channel. Nice job. Love to see people, not just staying fit, but actually competing.

i just bought for my 2022 tacoma its aug. 2023! should've bought year ago, they are great! just want say thank you!
Absolutely one of the best mods I have added to mine
6:26 correction according to desertdoesit it made from 6061 aluminum not 7075 aluminum.
I put a set in my 2013...I like it but it causes the seat to cut the circulation off to my heel of all places. I thing I will add a set of risers to the rear of the seat to help even things out. Anyone else have this issue?
Ok I’m taller and my head just hits the ceiling. Is there something to lower the seat?😮
I bought these too! I believe they’ll make a big difference for me, especially on long trips.

Already notoriously tight getting into a Tacoma this would make it unbearable. Hard pass
$100 lmao.. please somebody just send them to China so I can get them for $10 on Amazon
2:30 oh ok so like Sports Car Seats. Low car, low seat, but not flat laying legs; bent for leverage. 👍🏼
The Big 18 wheeler trucks have a setting where you can raise up the front part of the seat. Some people like it and I guess some people don't.
And 2012/2015 tacomas ?
If lifting the front of the seat improves comfort won’t lifting the back of the seat undo that improvement?
I still need to install mine! Maybe over the long weekend, ha
EASY! a 14mm and 15mm, this can be done in 3min!
Just installed these. Make the driving position so much more comfortable! Aloha!
If you rest your arm/elbow on the door that little extra height (lowering your elbow contact point) could be all you needed to alleviate your should pain. For me this is a big factor if I rest my arm on a center console or arm rest that’s a bit too high. 😊✌🏻
