There is a guy in my local upstate club who has air ride seats in his reg cab cummins, they look awesome. I'm trying to locate the pics of it now...

Kinda odd IMO that on the page of the actual item it doesn't say that and it also says "Includes seat belt bracket, all hardware and instructions for installation". Kinda seems contradictory there! Are the belts not built into all superduty seats, I really don't know since I haven't been in many of them.

Wonder if you lose your power seats with the base? Never looked at the base to tell if its two parts, like a power base and then a rise on top of that.

Not all the trucks have the built in seat belts just the super cabs (Ihave one as well) cause they dont have the piller to mount the belt to due to the rear suicide door. Its not that odd if you think about if the seats floating and not fully bolted to the floor neither is you're seat belt so you might as well not be wearing it.

What you just said doesn't make sense!?

If your seatbelt is integrated into the seat, you are still firmly attached to the seat no matter what. The seat may bounce up and down a little cause of the air ride, but you are still attached to it via the seatbelt, and the seat is still attached to the floor.


Also I'm attaching the cummins with the air ride seats in it... the guy bought it that way... looks killer though!

that's defin. a national seat. the way i understand it is your replacing the ford seat riser, and only the riser. you just bolt your seat to the new air ride riser, plumb the air line and your good to go hopefully. unless it is designed for a more narrow seat they make to go along with the new riser. the only concern i have is that the seat now, is very close to the center console, but i quess we'll find out shortly, and the INTEGRATED SEAT BELT only concers people who replace the seat with an aftermarket seat. truck seats do not come with seat belts like the pickups do, and the seat belt brkt. is to attach the latching mechanism to the new riser.
