: Can we make the seats recline any further?

What lawyer decided that we should only be able to recline our seats half as far as necessary for a nice rest? Has anyone modded their seats so they can fully recline all the way? Sometimes it's nice to pull off the road for a short nap, and another 15 or 20 degrees or recline would be very welcome.

I've got an 04.5 and I didn't see that threaded bolt anywhere when I took the cover off. I looked at the link but it didn't help much. The directions are good, I just can't locate it. Someone point me in the right direction because I was all over the front and back with my flashlight trying to see it with no luck.

Thanks

Take the side cover off. Unless you have the manual tip-back!

Side cover was off, and I have manual reclining seats. I'm screwed, huh?

Did a little investigation today..... YEP, solo sexual experience!!!

Without a major overhaul, you better like sleeping in your parked truck like you do in an airplane or on a bus!!
