Seat Jacker recommendations?

[JEEPCINEMA]

Hello Everyone,

Does anyone use/recommend the seat jackers? Wondering if they do improve comfort.

Yes, I have had them in my two JL's, My JK and my TJ. The JL seat at stock front height feels like I am falling off the seat. A set of those will raise the seat and provide more support for your legs. Make sure you get the JL ones.

I like mine. Always wonder if they'll hold up in an accident, but they sure do make the angle more comfortable. At 6'3 and 200 lbs my head is really close to the top now though.

But the seat already has a way to raise up, or are you wanting to go higher than that?

This is why I haven't bought them. Almost the same build. I think I am close to the to without a seat spacer. The tilt wheel is all the way up. What i would really like to see is a track extension so I could move the seat after about another inch. I did a 5 hour drive yesterday. The jeep was plenty comfortable. All adjustments are maxed out though.

I've had them in my 2021 with cloth seats and it was more comfortable with the seat jackers. As the other poster mentioned, it felt like I was falling forward out of my seat. With the jackers, it felt better.

I did upgrade to a 2025 with the nappa power seats. On these, you can adjust the tilt and it's much more comfortable to the point where I'm not going to need them.

Not sure what you have but I did notice a difference between the seats.

He is talking about the front of the seat.

I like mine. Tilts the bottom cushion of the seat. IMO more useful if you have manual seats and not the new power seats.

I do not have them. I am wondering if I got them would it help. My problem is my right leg hits my metal storage tray on my console and it is not comfortable. I know I could do away with the tray but want to keep it.

@REGGAVEGGA It probably depends on your legs/height. I presonally don't think the seat jackers would help clear your knees of the storage tray. I have the seat jacker and my knees still hit that area of the center console. The seat jackers only tilt your seat bottom a little bit. The position of your legs/knees remains in the general area of that aftermarket storage tray location.

 

[REGGAVEGGA]

thanks for that.

The seats do have that lever to raise/lower, but I found the back of my thigh pushed the lever down just slightly so over a few days the seat went back down. I had to constantly jack the seat back up until I read on these forums that people had the same issue and it was likely the thigh pushing the lever on exit. My fix was to jack the seat where I wanted it and remove the handle. Before I found it was my thigh hitting the lever I considered these.

First mod every taller jeeper should do. I did the jackers and later did the slammers.
