Default Seat Issue?

21 lariat sport SCREW

Tires around 36-38 psi, I feel like I feel every road imperfection through the seat bottom. Every bump, shudder or dip feels like vibration or shake in the seat bottom. It’s almost like I’m not sitting on cushion but the metal seat pan.

anyone else feel every thing through it? I do have what appears to be the front corner I can lift and it seems loose but wondering if my seat is just faulty or if this is the norm.

Not feeling this in ours. Same trim level at 35psi.

Is your seat height bottomed out?

The 275-60R20 tires are still fairly low profile without a lot of sidewall so those stiffen the ride some (I'm assuming that you have 20's since you have a Lariat). They are better than the 275-55R20's Ford used to use, though. Dropping the air pressure back to 35psi will help a little. I know when my tires are ready for replacement I'm going to 275-65R20 tire just for a little additional sidewall. I just hope there is clearance in the wheel well for a 1" larger diameter tire.

I have a 21 Lariat Sport screw with 18'' wheels. I weigh 225 and my truck is comfortable.
