99-06 Sierra Silverado 2" seat lift ext cab

[els1989]

So I've got my 2" seat lift being cut to size and holes drilled today... It's 2"x2"x2" u channel and I've got a 48" chunk... It requires 15" per set so I'm thinking if all measures up properly I might have my guy cut and drill 2 more lifts out of if and put them up for sale on here

Anyone interested in or currently in need of seat lift?

I'd like some pics, I went the other route and just took out the bottom of the seat and now it's a sub box instead lol still functional though

I just picked them up after I get outta the doctors office I'll post some pics up... Gotta make sure they fit properly

If you want the needed bolts sent with I will just figure out what works for me and send the same to you for pretty much cost

$50 isnt bad...

Well here's some photos gonna tweak the hole mounts for the next two I have done up so it will line up perfect also I'm looking at steel stock to extend the hooks so they stay hooked solid... They just barely catch now so when you go to fold the seat up they will fall out but I think I got that figured out

And side by side

Update...

All bolted in and hook extensions were necessary to latch the back rest... So I fab'd some up... At current hook ext. length it still allows you to fold your backrest down so if you have your amps mounted behind the back seat it will be easy to access your amps... Anyways here's the mounted pictures

Now this is put together with exact metric bolt and nut as stock.. So 18mm wrench and socket will get the job done... You will need to have a 18mm open face wrench to install

Will be tack welding bolts into place on seat mounts and the nutz onto the hook extensions for ease of installation... Because believe me the hook ext. were a mother to install

Cost of hardware was $20

Then add another $20 for the hook ext.

And $50 for the seat lift brackets...

So total cost if interested would be $90 plus shipping from 56479

And here's a little video showing the stability of the lift

Looks great, paint those pieces with some semigloss black and it'll look great. It's been so long since i had the bottom of my back seat in my truck i forgot what the mounts look like lol. did you lose any view out your back window since you had to raise the back of the seat as well?

No visibility lost could actually go up another 2-3 inches but your passengers would have to be short

Head room for a 6"3 me in the back comfortable

Looks good..On my 98 was easy..Just some flat 1 1/2 steel welded on existing and drilled holes.. was able to raise my seat up to 3.50" for a 6"0 person to sit comfortably in rear seat..Still folded and locked into place as normal.I havent had my seat in for several years but still have the option to do so for two heavy tens/12s firing forward is chosen.Nice though

Hmm ..sure hope he decides to make this type of modification to get some real room to get a real custom decent sub box made/installed rather than some chitty prefabs. Deff worth the effort!
