Lets talk Suspension Seats

[Stic-o]

So boss gave me a little bonus and I'm planning to upgrade seats in JP. Plan is 4 buckets as my back needs it and the kids have grown out of there car seats.

So I have narrowed it down the 3 following seats. Each is priced about $200.

1. Mastercraft Nomad.

2. Corbeau Baja JP

3. Corbeau Baja SS (These also come in black with Red inserts)

Currently I'm leaning towards the Mastercrafts.

Discuss please

I know nothing about the Mastercraft Nomads, but I can vouch for their customer service.

I called them about bending one of their seats in an rollover accident, and they wanted it back, and replaced it with a new one, free, no charges, nothing.

I will buy from them again anyday.

I was really leaning towards the Mastercrafts, and I was told they are very very stiff, and was advised to the Corbeaus. I was also given a pretty good deal on a set of 4.

So I ended up with these Corbeau Baja SS in Black/Red.

I will update on install. Should have in a week or two.

I guess it's too late, but if you're looking to go to something to support your back, I'd probably go with the high end stock seats that have lumbar support. I've never ridden in a suspension seat that offers that kind of support, and adjusting the lumbar is the only thing that helps me on long drives.

Interested to hear what you think of this.

I don't drive this distance. That's what a truck and trailer are for.
Besides I get the same mpg towing it vs driving it.
