Solution for drivers seat cushion angle! -- Seat Jacker

[1978Jasper]

Hi friends,

I'm 6'2" and have struggled a little bit with the angle of the cushion of the front seat. My thighs need more support on longer drives. Given that my youtube algorithm kicks ass sometimes I came across this youtube video:


NOW, I emailed the company Desert Does It and found out that this product will work for the Bronco Sport. And given that the BS doesn't use an alignment pin for the seats you can get either the F150 version or the Bronco version. I ended up ordering the F150 version as it let me stack 3 plates and gives me a little more of an angle AND BOY DID IT CHANGE THE SEAT! My thighs are thanking me. The install was super easy but did require T55 Torx head.

Post your questions.

Great!!!...This looks like the only viable option at this point!!! Thank YOU!!!

The f150 kit made a big difference for me

This looks great, but appears to be for the full-sized Bronco model only. It also only raises the front part of the seat, not the entire seat

I’m 6’ 1” and have always looked for a little rearward tilt to the driver‘s seat. I was seriously considering this as a solution. But we just finished a 2200 mile round trip Florida to Maryland. I didn’t have any of the aches or discomfort i got on the same trip in my wife’s Lexus ES350. So at this point I’m holding off.

I'm 6' and am always pulling up on the front of the seat adjuster thinking that I can get the seat bottom to tilt up on the knee side and then I remember that only the butt raises. This might be a good solution.

I installed the f150 kit several months ago and wouldn't remove them. Install was very simple.

Can it be installed on the back side of the seat? I hate that you can’t flat the seat and that I get a lot of pain in my tight

I just read this post and for some reason my computer keeps telling me this video is unavailable. Anyone else have this problem?

I was thinking the same thing!

It would be nice if they did Bronco Sport specific and the rear adjusters.

They really skimped on the seat control. No doubt about it.

I miss the 10-way power seat on my previous Escape. It had better bolsters than my BL and offered good thigh support.

I have never had problems with seat comfort. It is truly outrageous that I have to try to retro fit my car seat. I am 5' 4" so and it is so bad that I can't drive my brand new car. How can you not have a 10 point power seat for this car. I drive it 25 minutes twice a day and I have permanent damage to my sciatic nerve and hip. I stopped driving it for 2 weeks and I still have massive pain. Not okay.
