I may try these out... Love my Jeep, but I definitely get lower back pain and can't seem to find the correct position to get rid of it

If you live near Orlando, Florida, I have a set you can have. I tried them and hated them. Drove for.a week that way and removed them. Or if you are coming down to Jeep Beach, I can meet you and hand the set over.

That said, there are other that love them. My problem was they caused my head to touch the ceiling. It did more than just change the seat angle it lifted where I sat in the vehicle. They were just way too much. When I removed these, I put 2 1/16 thick washers under each side and that has worked very well for me.

I bought a set from them. In my Wrangler I just put a large nut between the floor and the seat rail - worked to give some tilt. These put more tilt in my Gladiator than I thought they would. But I think they are a more solid solution than using two nuts. It really tilted the front of the seat up, really noticeable.

Yep I installed it on my wife’s side. We went with the 3/4” riser for her and I used the smaller one on my side.
‘My wife recently went with me on a 7 hour trip and said it is much better... well worth $100

It's come up on the forum before. Some love em. Some hate em. Others worry it will impact the seat's safety in a crash by being out of position on rather thin metal.

Having built race cars where seat installation is professionally inspected I can tell you that since you are using the existing hard mounting point for the seat and keeping The rear seat points OEM that there is virtually zero chance of this product affecting your ability to survive a crash.
