FAQs
Seat risers or Seat Jackers are accessories that lift and add height to vehicle seats to provide greater comfort and support. They slide under the legs of a seat to raise it higher off the floor.
Benefits include enhanced posture, reduced lower back pain, improved leg circulation, easier entry/exit of the vehicle, and better line of sight while driving.
Most seat risers add .3 to 1.25 inches of extra height.
Seat Jackers are available for most mainstream truck and car makes and models. Desert Does It offers seat risers specifically designed to fit popular vehicles like the Toyota Tacoma, Jeep Wrangler, Ford F-150, Subaru and more.
Seat Jackers bolt in between the factory seat mounts and the vehicle floor. No drilling or modifications required. Simple hand tools and easy instructions included. Most installations take 10 minutes or less.
When properly installed, our Seat Jackers are completely safe. Seat Jackers have been engineered to meet or exceed the factory bolted connection and include factory grade hardware. Our Seat Jackers have been tested by an indepentant third party lab and have passed applicable test as requried by DOT/NHSTA FMVSS 207 Standards.
Some of our Seat Jackers allow the mounting of a Multi-Mount Panel (MMP) to the front of the block, if this is the case, there will be threaded holes to accommodate the molle panel. Not all Seat Jackers have this option.
Absolutely what I needed. I didn’t want the seat to be taller, but I needed the lower leg support. So much better now. Getting another set for the passenger side.
Much more comfortable! I have lower back issues that get worse on long car rides, went on a road trip last week with the seat jackers in place, game changer! much much better. leg didn't go numb or anything. Thanks!!
I have been driving my 4Runner for over 20 years. I’m only 6’1” but still never had enough leg room. My ankles and knees get sore on long drives. I am blown away by how much these little blocks changed my driving experience. The seat feels completely different to sit in.
I was suppose to receive my seat jacker. Suppose to receive on August 10. Ups cant find my order. Worse experience ever. I was going to purchase another set. But now i will not.
Best aftermarket accessory for Tacoma and 4Runner. I’ve have them on both my vehicles. What a comfort difference.
Didn’t really know if I would like them, but I love them so much more comfortable! Highly recommended by Me🤝🏼🤙🏼
I was injured 10+ year ago and have had back pain since. As we all know 4Runners aren’t massage chairs… but I can confidently say that desert does it seat jackers definitely helps! Road trips around the BC mountains here in Canada as well as to and from work is much more bearable. Well done you guys! Ps. Let me know if you come out with a massage chair I’d be your first customer ! Cheers and happy adventures from 🇨🇦
FRONT SEAT JACKERS® (1996-2002 4RUNNER)
Reduce back pain on long drives.
Easy install - quality kit. The seat jackers have been installed for a week and hold the promise of adding significantly to driving comfort.
Worked as intended. Much more support under the thigh. My wife is happy now!
I had wanted to raise the seats front for a while to make it more comfortable with a sporty upgraded feel. When I saw these were available I knew it was time to do it. I like to only install quality parts on my 4R so I usually fabricate my own simple parts, so was a bit hesitant to spend money on this one. When I received these spacers (super fast shipping and packed very well) I knew it was the right choice. The fit/finish and ease of install is top notch and way better than I could make myself. Even though they are not very visible after installed, the quality does peek out just enough to show. It's nice when a company truly cares about providing quality products. Thanks Desert Does It - Cheers!
My wife can now see over the steering wheel 😂
Came quickly , super simple and fast to install , makes my seats much more comfortable . Im 6’2” and these did not make the my legs cramped or make the cockpit feel small . I am very happy .
Used on my 2000 4runner and it does make a difference when seating for long periods of driving. Consider this before replacing with aftermarket seats. Expensive for what they are but they do improve seating posture.
So far my seat position is FAR superior than stock ! Love em !
After hearing good reviews about this product, I went ahead and purchase it for my 97 4runner. I used to have back pains on long drives. After installing these, all I can say is "WOW". It made a huge difference. I have thigh support now. Long drives feels so comfortable.
Only improvement I would suggest is to maybe add an adjustable shims to find the perfect spot. I wish this would be a tad shorter.
I would recommend this.
This was exactly what these seats needed!
Installed these on a 1999 Toyota Camry XLE V6.
List of tools used… 14 mm socket to remove original bolts in front and loosen the rear ones. All bolts are 14 mm.
8 mm hex socket to install the provided bolts. Torque to 27 ft. pounds. I followed the instructions and everything went very well.
Very happy customer. I'm going to purchase these for my 2018 Subaru Crosstrek. I now have thigh support on my 1999 Camry!! Took a reasonably comfortable seat and made it into an extremely comfortable seat. Thanks again for a great product! 😁
What a difference! They were easy to install and I couldn't believe how much more comfortable the seats are now.
I think it should be cheaper as it is a very simple product. However, u get what u pay for. Fantastic quality, great packaging, shipped fast, and the comfort improvement to my 20+yr seats was unimaginable. Will be buying them for every car I will ever own.
I was amazed at the difference these made in the comfort level of my old seats. Just the right amount of tilt provides so much support for added comfort.
I wasn’t expecting much from these little lifts but these made a world of difference. I’m 6’4”, 235 lbs and I am much more comfortable. I highly recommended the seat jackers!
Such a simple idea%2C nothing spectacular about it%2C but the results are amazing. I would recommend this to anyone%21 I e read reviews where people did not have the same experience I did%2C but I went into this purchase with an open mind. Absolutely amazed.
Used to get sore butt, now no more sore butt.
Seat jackers worked just wish there were add one to my 3rd gen 4Runner like the other Toyotas with the extinguisher.
This is a well made product that works as described. ONLY thing I wish it would do is index in to the seat mounting tab so that it cannot rotate while trying to torque it down.
These made a real difference in the comfort level while driving. It used to hurt my back, but does not any more. I ordered another set for the passenger side also. I was ready to sell the truck, but not now.
Great fix for long leg guys like me. I wouldn’t recommend your installation instructions. 29 Lb torque rip of my seat anchor captive nut - I had to welded back……
Good quality easy install👍🏻
These things are a tall guys dream. Installed them in my 2002 4Runner and it is almost as if I gained 3-4" of legroom and having more leg support. I only purchased one set for my driver seat to try and have ordered a second set for the passenger seat. Tall guys do yourself a favor and don't pass this seat mod up.
