  • IN TODAY'S VIDEO I SHOW YOU A SIMPLE HACK TO ADJUST THE SEAT HEIGHT OF YOUR TACOMA FOR ABOUT $10 BUCKS.
    *Bolts were purchased at lowes (automotive screws/bolts/washers section) HILLMAN Hex cap screws metric fine pitch M10-1.25 X 50
    as most people stated in the comments its true if you can find same bolt but “grade 8” get it also if you find lock washers and washers that fit the size that would be good to purchase as well
    *Spacers were purchased at lowes (in same aile)
    HILLMAN STEEL SPACERS - ZINC 1/2 X 5/8 X 1
    As a recommendation DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK I CLAIM NO RESPONSIBILITY (also if u can find grade 8 bolts,washers, & lock washers buy those better) but
    HUGE Disclaimer do this at your own risk I take no responsibility if anything fails as this is a safety concern

    I like your mod so much that I went and Bought the bolts. As a spacer I decided to use a washer stack from tractor supply. This way it’s almost infinitely adjustable. Once I reach the perfect height for me, I’ll weld a bead down a couple sides of the stack to make it solid.
    Starting it tomorrow.

    Good video. However, I went hunting for the bolts and the metal spacers, not only to a hardware store but to a home improvement store. The bolts were easy to find. But the spacers were not. All they had were plastic. So I improvised. I purchased (3 ) 3/8 inch nuts whose diameter were slightly larger than the bolt's diameter. I stacked them one on top of the other and created the desired metal spacer. Tightened the bolts nice and tight. Worked like a charm. (lock washers would be advisable as well). What's good about this is that the nuts can be added or subtracted for the desired height with the proper bolt.

    Jess I did something like this years ago on some of my old vehicles trucks n cars, I am 5'8" & always had the same problem looking over the hood, what I did is similar to your install only difference was I used shock mounting bushings made of rubber or something else you can pick them up at part stores or ebay, the good thing is with rubber or the other material it gives you more of a cushion when you hit bumps but what I also did is mount least 1 bushing on each side of the front & 2 double stacked each side to the rear of seat, bushings are thick that after the install you gain over an inch of a lift & gives you perfect view feels like you are in a truck..
    I will be doing this to my truck soon I have same truck as your's 4x2 offroad & I want to say again with the rubber bushings you get a comfortable ride which I can't understand why vehicle manufactures don't install bushings between floor & seat frame nevertheless I want to mention that the bolts are going to be longer in length front & rear but they should also be hardened bolts not soft bolts being if they are not hardened in an accident the heads of the bolt could snap off causing serious injury just to note that being manufactures are using hardened bolts as well for that reason, good video keep em going👍

    This is OK for the backend but for the front I would HIGLY recommend the lifters from Desert Does It. They're solid, safer and include the tab that goes into the hole at the bottom and a hole for the seat rail at its top for a secure fit. They're pricey ($99) but WAY WORTH IT! They even come with predrilled holes on their fronts for the available Molle like mesh that can be used to mount a flashlight or small extinguisher. I'm 6' 0 and it makes it FAR more comfortable on long drives..

    • @JesseRizo

      If he does proceed have him look and see if he can find grade 8 bolts and throw a wash on it a lot if people in the comments have been stating that lol,

  • @zippysmith1924
    @zippysmith1924 5 лет назад +1

    Me being 6.4
    The seat from factory is already too tall. My head hits the ceiling.
    This is what’s keeping me from getting a Tacoma.
    If we have a “reverse fix” to make the seat lower...
    I’ll be looking for my first Tacoma in the spring.
    Looking forward to your response.
    Thank you.

    • @JesseRizo
      @JesseRizo  5 лет назад +1

      I hear that a lot I wish they made the seats more versatile for any hieght,
      I wonder if going to an upolhstry shop and getting a smaller cushion or something 🤔

  • @javis1873
    @javis1873 5 лет назад +2

    Great content as always jesse, keep it up! Rob was thrilled with this mod lol. I am 6'1" but still would like to try this mod, the sitting position in the tacoma is not the best, not that i really need the height, but to level the seat a little bit. If you can, please let me know if this new set up isnt uncomfortable, or maybe hurts your back during long drives, i suffer from back injuries and it could help me make the decision, thanks in advance.

    • @RobMotive
      @RobMotive 5 лет назад +1

      Javi S I did mine more for comfort than height. Just seemed the seating position was off and needed to be more level. I agree with Jesse...felt more like a low rider before😁

    • @javis1873
      @javis1873 5 лет назад

      I totally agree with that comment, low rider describes it perfectly. Thanks for the answer rob, i think i will go for it 😉

      Thanks javi:)!!!, maybe with a smaller spacer 🤔 or as randy in the comments mentioned to try it with just washers, I havnt driven the truck a lot since the install but I should be traveling this coming weekend then I’ll be able to find out :) 👍

  • @devildoc6749
    @devildoc6749 4 года назад

    had worked on the seat modification, however came across an obstacle relating to a tight rear bolt on the driver side . Bolt is so tight, couldn't take it off, so i am going to have to return the items you suggested back to the store.

  • @subradiant_music

    I have a super long torso and I have legit no head room with the seats all the way down in a 2020. My truck is the exact same and it really bums me out I might have to trade it back after 3 days

  • @gelhorner6556
    @gelhorner6556 2 года назад

    Cool way to save money and very clever. However, this project too way longer than anticipated. I could not for the life of me get the left side bolt to match up with the hole. I’ll insert the bolt first without spacer and washer and it screws right in. But then I go to Jack it up, insert spacer and washer and the bolt will just not line up to screw in. Will need to think of something else. Right side has no issues though.

  • @franciscoaguilar187

  • @vampire64
    @vampire64 5 лет назад +3

    If he has an accident those bolts will punch through the seat anchor points. Who knows if the other non-modded bolts will be able to withstand and hold the rest of the seat down or slam him up to the roof.

    • @JesseRizo

  • @hidesbehindpseudonym1920
    @hidesbehindpseudonym1920 Месяц назад

    The seats are probably designed like that because of the smaller overall height of the interior cab. Raising the seat up would probably make the seat more comfortable for people with longer legs. I do have to wonder why the 4runner has height adjustable seats though.

  • @benjaminsperry5562
    @benjaminsperry5562 5 лет назад +2

    This an very out of the box mod but I think that affects the safety aspect of the the actual seats just be aware that if you do this mod and you get in a wreck that mod you installed under neath your rear seat anchor points might fail

    Hey im 4'11 and I cant even reach the pedals in my husbands 1996 4runner. I was looking into seat spacers but questioning if the inch is really even going to do much. I feel like i need a booster seat with a back 😆 but that would look silly.. im trying to figure out how to get the seat to a spot that I can actually see and reach the pedals. He also has a clutch. So I need to be able to use that, so basically get my foot to push the clutch down all the way.

    • @JesseRizo
      @JesseRizo  4 года назад

      Dang 😬 yea idk probably use those back seat cushions and a pillow 🤔?
