I'm 6'5'. I drive with my knees at @ 4 and 8 on the steering wheel, seat all the way back and straight up. Don't really have a prob. with head room, just the 'headrest'.

But I drive a 2000 with gen 3 buckets, so that might play a little into it.

 

Yes, and that hurts like a SOB

 

im 6'5", i still have about 1.5-2' of head room. but ive got longer legs. but i know what you mean, i have to do that in my girlfriends civic, and my brothers 09 mustang.

 

lol, but the problem is, she's got a LONG way to bend down to do anything for you... i had this one girlfriend when i was in highschool, she was 4'8" i was 6'2" it was awesome! she didn't have to kneel down!

 

im 6'2" at 16 and i have plenty of room in my 01 regular cab

 

problem solved...

 

wow, Justin gets excited when his GF get out the step stool he knows he is getting laid!

 

6'3" here, but I have a SC...I've been with a girl who was 4'11"...she fit horizontally on the 60/40 perfectly!

 

short chicks FTMFW

 

that was a one night thing lol. I actually prefer taller chicks lol

 

I have leather explorer seats that are full power so i can sit way low if i want to... and i am 6'2

 

put custem seat bracets in to lower is about 2in are so

 

6'3" and I am all leg. I sit about 1" from the headliner in my '10, my '02 was a few inches lower. The nice part about the '10 is the turn signal stalk is now curved up. The stalk on my 02 came straight out and I would constantly turn the right turn signal on every time I came off the clutch.

 

got that problem with my dad's 96 f-150, my 07 ranger i haven't had that happen yet though...

 

Id feel too much like a pedophile for it to be awesome...

I wanna see the let down on his face when she takes the ladder out to change a light or clean the gutters.

 

As you can see, the seat track is a pretty complex device, not easy to modify without serious shop skills and tools. Now given a decent torch and welder, I'm sure someone could fab up a replacement...however the typical "garage mechanic" is out of luck. Your best bet is to find some Explorer seats. I went from 60/40 split bench Ranger seats to Explorer Bucket seats and dropped a good inch. Same generation of trucks.

Here is a good picture from my 2000 Ranger seat tracks from when I swapped to the Explorer seats.

Throw in an old microwave, a leaky grease gun, some miracle grow, and a pair of tin snips and anything is possible!

 

anyone know if just putting the seat brackets from expo seats, on our seats would make a difference? or is the lowering in the seat it's self and/or brackets aren't interchangeable...

 

x2
good question

 

i just get my gansta lean on, and i'm good, so i won't do it to my truck, but other people i'm sure want to know... diggity!

 

!'m 6'1" and I understand yalls pain, my truck in an '05 supercab, and my length is in my legs, and I wish I had a lil more leg room. And the newer Rangers I think '06 and up go back a lil further that the previous gens...

 

Did you ever find a solution?
I am having the same problem with hitting my head. I have the original split bench in a 07 supercab. Thinking about the explorer seats or any seat that will lower it but I hate to make the purchase until I know for sure that it will work. I need to get about 2" more head room.
