Hello,
Has anyone else have gripes about the seat comfort in the JTs? We have a 08 JKU and the seats to me are sooo much more comfortable. Anybody done any changes to them? Upgrades?
Thanks...

I agree with OP. JK seats are more comfortable. Still waiting for the JT seats to "break in."

My only complaint is the angle.. And eventually I will just add some spacers to the front to correct that. Waiting till I get it at the final height & rake though before I mess with that

After an hour they are not too comfortable.

I think the JT seats are more comfortable than the seats in my JK were.

This! Other than that, they seem very comfortable and well made.

I have an Overland with leather seats. Not sure if the Overland and Rubicon have better quality seats than a Sport S or not...

I really like the seats and the seating position. Routinely drive a 3 hr trip and they are much better then my FJ Cruiser. I'm 6' 4” and skinny.....

I picked up my Gladiator last week in Texas, drove around for a little while, then just drove it cross-country to Arizona in two days. It was very comfortable (except for the wind noise but that's to be expected at 80+ MPH) and I never felt like the seats were limiting my enjoyment.

The seats in here are pretty good. Only complaint is they don't go down low enough. If they could just get a little lower I would be completly happy with them.

That's funny - I (6'1") noticed that when I first get in I can't see the very top of the instrument display but after I've been driving for a bit and start slouching I can see it just fine.

I'm 6'3" & slouch enough that I never noticed that I couldn't see the top of the display. I am going to have to look for that specifically now. But I am guessing that I have the seat leaning far enough back that I wont have the problem.
