The rear seat the I had in mine was. Pro dropped down about 2 inches. With a slight tilt of the seat the passengers both front and rear didn't have any leg room issues.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
It looks awesome btw. I like how the cage is uniform and snug fitting. The pics don't do it justice. Seeing it in person is the only way to really see what's gone into it.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
Work looks good, and those beards are comfy.
As you said the no recline (tilt forward actually) thing can pose a bit of a problem.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
Those seats look Bada$$ Robert!!! And I don't have any issues with my non-reclining/tilting front seats I have, but only kids can ride back there cause I have 2 PRP Preemie's.....

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
The thing is... Well I hate to be all anal especially about mediocre stuff but still, the head rests not matching bugs me, the fact that the beards are ass gripping race buckets and not really a cruising type seat. I guess it would help if you saw a side view. The beard seats are deep. I think I'm thinking a shallower seat perhaps.
First pic is a side view of the beard followed by what style I have in mind. What do you guys think?

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
I personal prefer for cruise prerunner rides the kind of the Baja RS sieats with folding back....at the pass of time you always get tired of the race styles seats. But it is weird that right now, I don't have either of both styles on my Bronco, just the OEM.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
Depends how many times you plan on stopping and getting out of that seat a day. Course marking it got kind of old climbing out of them. Pre-running, they were heaven.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
Are the lower side seats equal in the butt suspension dept minus the cauldeling?

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
I mean don't get me wrong those beards cost what my bronco did but I can save them for a more extreme build later if there's not a huge support differance.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
I guess I'm asking if the 600$ for matching prp's was no big deal would you stick with the beards or get the prp's?

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
all comes down to taste on the seats.
Those beards are the ultras. Had them in my ranger and loved them. Well, I loved how much they hugged me - not getting and and out of them. Without a tilt wheel and with the tight ranger cab they were entertaining to get in.
As for the headrests - you have the new style ones. Those bug me as well. Not sure if they bug me enough to spend that kind of cash though.
The older ones were rounded like the "normal" seats, but a bit wider. They matched the standard seats better.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
No tailgate, but full set minus that. I ordered the " plush pile" not the ultra plush cause I was worried it may look like a shag carpet from a house.
