Default STX Package

If you get the STX package is there any way to lower/raise the drivers seat?

the only raising and lowering available is with power seats... idk if you can order an STX with power seats, but it's not a standard option for sure

Negative. It would take an aftermarket modification or replacing the seats with power seats which is very doable if you are handy and can get the parts. Check this out https://www.f150forum.com/f118/addin...ats-xl-386644/

I added a 10 way power seat to my 2017 STX. Seat cost $190 at LKQ and came with an airbag intact. I sold the airbag for $140........I swapped my seat foam and fabric to the frame of the XLT 10 way power seat, took a couple hours. You have to add a power and ground wire to get it all working, but its really not that bad.

You were able to put the stx sport cloth on the power seat frame? It fits right on it without modification? I'm planning to do this but my truck is a lease and I'll need to put it back on the original frame when my lease it up..just want to make sure the parts swap right over

Yes, then I installed Katzkin leather replacement covers a few months after that.

Putting the power driver's seat in mine also, I thought I would be content with the manual one but I prefer the seat in my XLT truck that has power much better. The manual seat feels like sitting in a hole, comfortable but a little too low when I must have the seat as far back as possible due to my height. These trucks are like a big Lego set. You just keep adding things to the basic truck until you get it how you like it. Most things are plug and play. Added the outside factory keypad to my STX also. The wiring is all there and the code is on a card you get upon truck purchase. STX package you can't get power seats or remote start or navigation, and there is no hood insulation pad (added one to mine). You do get a console and the bigger center screen and the better color screen on the instrument panel. Little things like the panels under the seats that make holding bins are not there (added them since the screw hole are there and cheap) and there is no center speaker in the center dash tray. For the money spent you get a decent truck to start with. Rare on a STX but I ordered were the heated mirrors, rear defrost, Sirius, running boards, reverse sensors, and 36 gal tank and 3.73 gears and the upgraded tow package for the upgraded front sway bar and transmission cooler. Most come pretty stripped to maintain a low price point since it is a XL really. Nearly all I ever saw had 2.7's in them with a 26 gal tank, so I ordered a 5.0. The black cloth interior is nicer than my XLT with grey cloth. For me I wanted Leadfoot and a column shifter. Only way to make one was STX.
