Raised Front Seats!

Post by Pauleo »

So I was checking out the mods page trying to find something I could do to my truck that wouldn't cost much. I just got done with the BL & tires so I figured I better not push a big ticket item on the wife. :lol: Came across the seat mod and remembered my wife saying she feels like she's sitting on the floor when she gets in my CC. :shock:

So for $20.00, I raised the seats. I gotta tell ya, it may sound like a silly mod and I don't know if anybody else out there has tried it but it's pretty cool! Takes a little getting used to, but it's cool!

It was a real easy task. But I did end up having the same problems as described in the instructions from the mods page. Those Torx bolts were a bit of a bear and I endend up stripping one myself. Took me an HOUR to get that one bolt out!!! :x

Anyway, I'm satisfied for another week. Then I'll be looking for something else to do to my wonderful CREW! :D

When I got my CC I thought that the seats felt low (compared to the ZR2 I traded) and if the CC stock seats sit as low as the lowest setting on the power seats then I totally agree. After a couple days like that I finally checked out my owner's manual and messed with my power seats to raise 'em up :D

Hmmm. May have to do this to the wife's CC. She isn't that tall either (maybe 5'4"). Since I never drive it anymore (1 3/4" higher and my head would hit the ceiling), why not?

I never thought about those of you with POWER seats. That would have been nice to have that option! :)
