I don't have one in my Dodge, but do have one in my International tractor that I think would work well in a pickup. Its the one that fits the passenger side of the truck. Internationals have an HVAC system that resides in a box under the passenger seat and therefore the seat in that location has a lower base and a shorter "stroke" on the air bag. In a pickup, these features will keep your head out of the headliner and roof of the truck, protecting your neck in the event of large bumps. Unless you're really short, a seat with a regular stroke would be really dangerous and I wouldn't recommend it at all. If you have an IHC or Navistar dealer in your vicinity, go take a look at what they have in stock. Most have several brands including Bostrom, National and others.

Good thought TAbbot. It would need a short stroke and range limiter on the astronaut end . Which IH tractor do you have? Is the seat a national brand? Gracias, George
