Fold Rear Seats Flat???
Has anyone tried modifying the rear seat hinges to allow the rear seat back to fold flat???
I'd like to try it...But it's 5*F outside... |

They already fold essentially flat, you want to lose that last 8 degrees?

The last person that told me they were upset that the seats didn't fold flat so they could sleep in the truck didn't remove the bottom seat cushions so the seat backs couldn't fold flat. After I told him how it was done and asked if he ever looked at his owner manual he said he really felt like a dip$hit. His words, not mine.

Just curious if anyone else had modified theirs before I tear mine apart. ...Which will be a while, since I have no garage to work in... |

I agree with Rick. However, you could think about it in reverse, and figure out a way to make a platform that raises the rear to compensate for the seats being angled up, but that's a lot of hassle.

Mine fold all the way flat. All I have to do is get in through the side door and put all my wieght on them and they go all the way down and then some. Of course there's still that steel lump right behind the seats!

The air mattress really works well. If you get a 12v mattress inflator you can have camp set up in no time flat. Those of us who have camped out of our X regularly for the last 3 years have pretty muched worked out all the nuances. If you have any questions, just post!

What's with all this talk of mattresses? My god, I didn't know there were so many WOMEN in our club.
I sleep on the roof rack. |

I'd believe Jens, but then it's been at least a year since I've seen him offroad in his truck.

6 months, rich-boy. Remember, gas is expensive up here and I'm single now! (read: expenses have doubled) Coupled with working 6 days a week, wheeling has taken a back seat for awhile.
