Fold YOUR rear seat down for under $20 | 2017-2021 Superduty | F150 Sportfish Tether - HOW TO -

[@pinktacotuesday4573]

Just Installed the Built right Industries rear latch. Thanks for the vid super easy!! Bought my brother n law one too.

[@williamclark9624]

Got me, just took delivery of my 2020 F-350 Lariat 8 ft. bed. yesterday. Impressive. Left a stoplight, looked down,6th gear 35mph. Damm the ass end was not even out of the intersection yet.

[@lesbauman]

Finally! A mod under 25 bucks! I bought a 2020 F250 King Ranch 3 months ago. I'm going to do all the mods you have done on yours. Air intake, disaster prevention, upper fuel filter mod, soon to released lower fuel filter mod, At least this one is cheap. lol.

[@buckhorncortez]

Did that type of mod on my 2011 F150 Platinum. Totally forgot about the seat release on my 2019 F350 - thanks for the reminder.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Done.

[@daddydiesel5889]

Probably the first thing I did to my 2020, I store soo much stuff behind my seats (four way, 4x30 HD tow strap, regular ratchet straps, ford goose ball kit, bed cargo net, load bar, etc) it’s like a tool box but on the inside of the cab. Don’t think I could fit as much stuff if I had the premium sound system tho. I see arod has a sub and what looks like a amp back there. I have the inverter built in but it is under the seat on the rear passenger side. Good video

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Thanks bud!

[@herveyforward5956]

Thanks for the great tip and video. Just installed one on my Duty, Like you found out no instructions so it was Daaaa a Rubrics Cube for a couple minutes. Appreciate your demo. Useful and works. Should have been stock from the factory but hey look how much weight and $$ they saved for epa fuel economy.

[@edhdougherty]

I’m in parts and had a customer yelling at me about this a couple months ago. Said her truck was built wrong because it didn’t have one. Glad I wasn’t crazy when the catalog showed nothing.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@rogerbaldwin8498]

If you re look at your video you will see for one second you had the red slide small hole on the post correctly. The small hole on the red slide needs to drop down straight onto the post. Great Video I had no Idea you could do that.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Mine did not fit.....

[@zachkuykendall1048]

There are a few different brands out there especially on Amazon. I went with the Built Right because 'Merica and it was still less than $25 bucks I think. They also offer a few other cool mods I wanted so I saved on shipping. They make an "off-road" stubby antenna that's pretty cool

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Guess i f'ed up....thats literally what everyone is sayin......

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Hellz yeah

[@gregc9220]

This was the first mod I did on my 2019, perfect spot for my tool case, I paid the premium price for the BuiltRight brand to support a local American business, I see hundreds of eBay knockoffs now for less than $10 and I see why now after watching your video, the small hole clips on the latch stud of the BuiltRight and fit like a glove, not knocking the one you got but only the best for my XLT F250 🤪

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Wow i wasn't aware of other ones, 1st one i saw pop up..looked cool. That lil red part didn't fit in mine...

[@chadh6899]

Nice vid ARod. I just got my BuiltRight version in the mail today. This video was perfect timing and should make quick work of it as well. I also got the BuiltRight Dash mount at the same time and already installed it tonight. It took me about 30 mins total. You should check out their products and look at the dash mount. Thanks again for taking the time to give the install overview.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Thanks buddy

[@chadh6899]

@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Just installed it. Pretty quick process like you showed. However it was a PITA getting it to relatch again but I finally got it. I think it is a bit of right steps and feel. Either way, it worked out and will make it nice to be able to easily fold that seat forward.

[@Conner._.Anderson]

@@chadh6899 I just pulled the side lever and shoved the top back and it snapped right in

[@davestewart9146]

Nice fix but I have to say I like my 06 f250 setup better, a lever for the back and a lever for the bottom, I can’t judge the reasoning for the design because I’ve never looked that close at a new super duty 👍😁

[@agent1atl]

I like it. Let us know if it rattles though. Don't like the metal to metal design. I piece of foam tape on both sides might solve the issue if it exists.

[@RambozoClown]

Thanks for the info. Just got an F250SD and while I figured out all the other seat bits, that left side back had me stumped. As a last resort I even looked in the owners manual and nothing about the backs, just the base. Even for the right side that has a release. How lame. I guess I need to buy a seat release tether, for a brand new truck. WTF Ford?

[@jerryknorr679]

Nice little set up one of the guys at the fire house that same set up on his 150 it works great. Thanks ARod

[@Uncle_Fester24]

Awesome. Could never clean that window. Thank You

[@2fast65]

Great video I just ordered one have a great day be safe.

[@gobdeep]

The 2014 F-250 (Lariat) has the handle on the side of the seats for folding down. I wonder why it is different on the newer MY and, based on one of the comments below, the 2011?

[@leelucas2935]

I made my own with a key ring and some paracord

[@user-id8ng9eq9h]

Trying to think, why would you want to fold the seat down 🤷‍♂️. Seems the floor space you get by folding up is better in every way. What am I missing ?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

........

[@johnhendrix2914]

To me it seems like it’s the purpose put the seat now do you want a flat area and that thing sticking up on the way

[@imranabbasi7871]

Good luck 👍

[@truevang9482]

HI FRIEND, WERE CAN I BUY ONE. MY 2020 F-450 PLATINUM NEED ONE. KEEP UP THE GOOD VIDEO 👍👍

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Thanks pal!! Search the internet...

[@greaseman93]

Thanks!!

[@65mach]

Good video but garbage back seat design. My one owner 2005 F 250 Lariat has lever on side to lower seat back. Why did Ford change design? Was it needed for the new under seat tray that is for storage? My 05 has the metal fold out under seat platform to use for hauling chit in the back with seats folded up. Behind the seat is the storage tray for jack, tire iron etc plus behind the seat back works great for heavy winter coat storage, tow straps, jumper cables etc.......

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Good question...

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Wayy bigger

[@65mach]

@@SM-ut6vb I still don’t get why Ford had to eliminate the lever to lower the seat back. Just doesn’t make sense. Even if they gained more leg room, how much did they actually gain? And the idea that you need to raise the lower seat to get the back seat to come forward enough to get to the latch just seems like a poor design. Don’t get me wrong, the new Strokers are awesome rigs, if they weren’t literally double what I paid for my 2005 6.0 new I’d have one.

[@paulrodrigues9603]

Another great mod. I've seen these before but I forgot about them. Is there a lot of room to be found? Thanx Cuz

[@markkropf8295]

Awesome!

[@alfredriley3771]

It should have been a standard from factory

Tool question...I notice you using them all the time. Where would you recommend getting impact hex and torx drive sockets? In search of a set.

Hey guys my 2015 f350 gave a p20BA code and I changed the heat today, its now giving all kinds of codes heater, fill level, heater line pump! Checked all pugs and all good, didn't know the pin to check power, the thought for me is that all needs to be cleared and start a fresh? It didn't do all this till I changed the heater and didn't totally unplug the pump from loop, AFAIRED of issues with plugs. Did cover all pugs and presser wash tank and pump? I am just a hand and not a computer myself. Its now 3 miles till 50 mile limiters! ASKING FOR HELP HERE! IS IT A code clearing issue? If was new pump , all else would not be putting up codes?

Little Baby F150. Lol RAM has a similar situation with the rear seat but no parts needs, just a trim of the seat back hook. Why manufacturers went to this is a mystery.

[@mastercraftcc]

I removed my rear seat but now I get rear seatbelt monitor needs service indication can I get a wiring diagram for the seatbelt monitor circuit or is there a easy way to get rid of this message. Putting rear seat back in is not really an option

He's correct, instead of sliding into place. Fish it through the smaller hole for a snug fit.

This is a cheap China knockoff where shit doesn't fit right. Get you one from BuiltRight Industries. They are the ones that invented this seat release and you can tell that it is literally a ripoff of their design. Plus, you are buying from an American company who works very hard and has a lot of cool accessories for the Super Duty! Matt, the owner puts a lot of pride into his products. Like you say, nothing but the best for your Super Duty!
