Whats up, anyone lifted there rear seats in there 5th gen rams, know where to get lift kits for the sests? Biggest i seen was net audio 1.5 lift. I have a 2020 1500 bighorn and was looking and lmi welding doesn't offer a seat lift for one's without the big center console. I'm gonna eventually have to lift my rear seat for my 4x8 subwoofer enclosure to have enough airspace. Thanks

Why don`t you just delete the whole rear seat and fabricate a custom storage shelf in place of it, problem solved?

I don't know of any aftermarket solutions for you but check with some local fabrication shops in your area.
It seems like a fairly simple project, and I don't think it would cost much to have it made to whatever height you need.

52 bucks for couple pieces of MDF and few bolts!
Make your own.
Get longer mounting bolts that meet your lift requirement and cut spacers from heavy-wall pipe.
Add some primer and paint and you are done...

Have you considered cycling? it is easier on the old joints than running.I'd like to get my rear seat lifted a little, also. My wife says, over the years, mine has become a bit saggy!

I agree. I do use my exercise bike during the winter months which, here in Buffalo, NY, usually lasts until July. Then, a couple of weeks of summer. My comment about the saggy butt was actually my attempt at trying to be a comedian!
Kind of figured that...

I ordered the LMI 1020 Ram kit after I talked to a local car audio shop, but the only problem is it did not come with installation instructions. My last seat lift was simple and was self explanatory, but this kit has more pieces with specific deferent angles. I will try to figure it out.

LMI has two different model number kits. One says "does not fit the large fold down console" and the other says "does not fit the small fold down console". I wonder if one or the other works for you?
The rear wall of my 2022 is remarkably similar to my older 2005. Although the 1020 RAM kit says 2010-2018, I wonder if it works. The picture is of a 2019+ Limited. They have great pictures for GM and Ford kits, but nothing great for the Rams on their website. I'd email them a picture of your back seat and let them tell you which kit fits your application. If the Big Horn doesn't have a fold down rear seat then you could probably get away with some stacked MDF spacers. I'm not too familiar with what's going on in the Big Horn back seats.
