At Desert Does It, we’ve always stood by the belief that comfort should never come at the expense of safety. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce groundbreaking news: Seat Jackers®, our flagship product, are now officially crash-test certified under the rigorous FMVSS 207 (Seating Systems) standards. This certification makes Seat Jackers® the first and only seat riser to achieve such recognition, ensuring that your vehicle’s safety rating remains intact, even in the event of an accident.
This isn’t just another milestone for us—it’s a game-changer for the industry.
Stock vehicle seats often leave drivers and passengers with discomfort and fatigue, especially on long drives. Our Seat Jackers® were designed to solve this problem, offering ergonomic relief by lifting the front of your seat for better posture, improved circulation, and enhanced leg support. Now, with crash-test certification, you can enjoy this comfort with the added peace of mind that your safety remains uncompromised.
As Steve Lindsay, co-founder of Desert Does It, explains:
"With these crash test results, we’ve proven that Seat Jackers® not only provide ergonomic relief but do so without compromising the safety of the vehicle’s original seat design."
The crash testing for Seat Jackers® was conducted under FMVSS 207, the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard governing the structural integrity of vehicle seating systems. The results were nothing short of outstanding:
Crash-Test Certified for Safety
Seat Jackers® maintained the safety rating of stock vehicle seats, meeting all FMVSS 207 standards. This means you get enhanced comfort without sacrificing the protection of the original seating design.
Withstands Extreme Forces
During testing, Seat Jackers® endured forces 20 times the weight of the seat in both forward and rearward directions—equivalent to what OEM seats are required to withstand.
Durable Under Impact
Seat Jackers® proved their resilience by withstanding over 3,300 inch-pounds of force, simulating the severe stresses of real-world collisions. Despite these intense conditions, they retained full structural integrity and adjustability.
"These outstanding results make Seat Jackers® the safest seat modification on the market," said Joe Lund, Desert Does It’s master machinist and co-founder.
"Our customers deserve the peace of mind that comes from knowing their comfort upgrade won’t compromise their safety, and these tests prove exactly that."
While other aftermarket seat modifications claim to improve comfort, they lack the rigorous safety testing required to ensure passenger protection in a crash. Desert Does It Seat Jackers® are the first and only seat riser to complete official crash testing, setting a new industry standard for both safety and comfort.
FMVSS 207 is a safety standard established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It sets stringent requirements for vehicle seats to ensure they can withstand the forces of a crash while retaining their structural integrity. Key elements of the testing include:
Seat Jackers® passed every test, demonstrating their ability to withstand these demanding conditions without compromising safety or functionality.
From the beginning, Desert Does It has been about more than just comfort—it’s about delivering high-quality solutions with integrity. Our Seat Jackers® are:
