Slightly scary but very worth it if you’re tall like me.
I’m 6’5” so I ran into the issue with the roll bar. This is a pretty involved mod but being a welder as a profession I wasn’t too worried. You do have to cut the rear seat legs off but I’ll tell you… it’s definitely worth it once you sit in your new slammed seat. Makes all the difference in the world and makes the jeep feel like a whole different vehicle. Took about two hours or so, so not too bad there. All in all I’m very happy with it.

6’7” and I fit now!
Easy install. Wish I had done this on previous JKUs.
I removed the B pillar trim to drop the seat all the way down.

Really great product ! I actually fit in my 2018 jku rubicon now . I don’t even have the seat all the way down and back (that’s a first for any vehicle I have owned) very happy with my purchase despite the $100 Canadian import fee . Oh and install wasn’t that difficult, angle grinder was key 👌🏻 a hacksaw with a good metal blade would also probably do the trick.

Jku seat slammers
I have the seat slammers for my Gladiator and have been waiting for these for my wife’s JKU. They are great, easy install and much better seating position. I would just recommend making the provided longer bolt the same head size as the rest of the factory seat bolts.

The lift did make driving more ergonomically comfortable for me as a 6'2" man. Install was easy but did not fit properly. I had to grind seat rail base holes to be closer together from front to back. Not a lot but no other way.
Bottom line for the product is satisfied but not perfect.
I put off ordering because it isn't cheap. And that's a good thing. It is kind of amazing that two small pieces of metal can improve a Jeep seat as much as these do. You won't regret getting these.
However, I doubt that you can get these on in ten minutes. Maybe twenty, but it's no big deal.
Super easy to install and makes a big difference, especially on long drives. My back would usually tweak if I had long drives, especially on consecutive days. After installing the seat jackers I have no problem. Installed in a 2015 Tacoma and I’m 6’1” tall for reference.
The quality of manufacture is excellent. Installation/ instructions make installation the project easy. The purpose of the product is to elevate my wife’s seating position. Would be nice if a higher block, for greater elevation, was available.
