QC rear seat flip down

[amtrucker22]

I don't know if this has been posted before but I thought I post a brief description on how to do this (courtesy of dodgetalk). This is for the QC people who want to access the back wall behind their seats. The whole process took me about 15 minutes to do.

BACK SEAT MODIFICATION:

Keep in mind, that as you flip your rear sweat up the back of the seat rises to a high point then falls again when it is at its resting point, either up or down.

This is the instruction for a 60/40 split rear seat. you fold up the first small section of the seat, this would be the 40% hahaha. Anyhow flip it up and unbolt the 4 bolts at each corner of this seat.

After unbolting the 4 bolts you will take out the whole seat. If you look at the back of the cab at the hooks where rear of the seat slide into they are offset so the grabbing point of these hooks is above the mounting point. Simply unbolt these and flip them upside down. This will lower the point at which they will grab. Now, bolt the seat back into the rear of the truck.

This works because now when you lift the seat the back portion of the seat will rise just high enough to pop out of the now lowered hook and fall forward. To set the seat back up you push the back of the seat against the back of the cab and raise the seat making sure to push against the seat as the back of it reaches its high point so it will fall into the hooks.

I have attached a picture of the brackets you have to flip. This makes accessing the rear very easy and a great place to mount amps.

That mod would be really useful if you put a seat cover on the back seat. Great info! I think I will do that to my truck.

I flip it down if I need to load something back there but do not want it on the leather.

Can you do this for the 60 side as well?

What size bolt? Mine or either to big or small.

I reused the bolts. Just flipped the over and that was it.

I didn't mean bolt, I meant socket. I got it figured out anyways. Did the 40 today. Will try to get the 60 this week. It will make it easier for the dog on the road trip to Virginia next month when I move.
