I just got a sub box to go under the rear seat of my 97' Ext Cab but there isn't enough clearance. Does any one know where I can get a seat lift or how I can make one. Thanks.

 

i dont think anyone makes one for the 97-03 but i know a member hear made his own but you can always make your own box like i did since i didnt want to lift my seats.

 

Dang, well i guess I'll just make my own lift. Thanks.

 

Anyone have a "how to" on the lift kit?

 

there's one floating around on here IIRC but it's been a very long time since I've seen it

 

I made one in my 97 extended cab. I just used two pieces of heavy wall square tubing from work. I drilled holes for the seat bolts to go through and just removed the center support because I built my box just the right height for the seat to rest on the box in the center. I actually still have the pieces of square tubing but I don't know what I did with the bolts I had used. I found the longer bolts at lowes for a couple of bucks. If you would be interested I would be willing to send you the pieces for the price of shipping if you were interested.

 

I used longer bolts and found some metal bushings to lift my back seat about 1.5-2 inches to get my box to clear.

 

if you do not mind what were the diamentions of your box
thanks

 

here ya go.

 

does that box go under your rear seat

 

I just used some threaded rod and some turnbuckles to lift the rear seat in my '99. Works great, and since I have it sitting on the top of my sub boxes it isn't going to be going anywhere. Not bad for about $12 at Home Depot.

hey can you make me one that will lift my seat 8-9 inches

 

I dont work with LMI welding, i just bought my seat lift from them and they are the only people who make the seat lift. And they DO NOT have a seat lift for 8-9 inches. That would be scary if they did. LOL
