Backseat of a crew cab

Does the back part of the back seat fold down? Was wanting to throw a compressor back there

Kinda lol
There should be a black cloth loop beside the headrest that you need to pull up on.
It may be a little hard to find, look down in between the back of the cab and the back of the seat and you'll find it.
Pull up on it.
Seat should come down

you need to have the lower seat partially up or it wont go .

Yup
Forgot to mention that also.
It is kind of a pain

Y'all talking about the 60% side or the 40% side? I found the strap to pull down the small side pretty easy, access the jack, etc. Big side's got me scratchin.

Spatel23 · Mar 17, 2017

should have one on both sides

Grey_Matter · Mar 19, 2017

it doesnt, i ran into the same problem, the 40% side has the loop on the seat, the 60% side does not, the loop by the headrest is for a child seat as far as i can tell.

tried looking in my owners manual and it doesn't say jack squat

its a little metal tab you need to release.

To the right of the headrest behind the seat is the mechanism and when you put your hand back there, there is a shiny metal round release you pull up on and it works like a door mechanism.

Found it. Like said above, have to raise bottom of seat slightly which pulls the back of seat away from cab and you'll see the latch. Thanks.

Shows how old you guys are getting. There is only one thing to be worried about in the back seat. It SURE as hell ain't the back of the seat.

oke:

Just wanted to show y'all this. Found it randomly on the F150 forum the other day and thought of this thread. Its for the new F150s (which has the same cab as the super duty). So I assume it would work on the new super dutys seats. Seems like a good idea if youre someone who wants to use that space behind the drivers side rear seat. It may be worth contacting the company and see if they've ever tried fit up on the back of the 2017 super duty seat. Heres the link:

Where does it say they share the same cab?

It's been discussed before and several articles out there on it if you google it. But here's the first article of you search it. Ford wanted to share the same cab between the super duty and F150, likely for cost savings much like they did in the 1990s and earlier. Also if you go to Fords official web site, you can check all the cab specs/dimensions between the two trucks and they are identical. But here's the link if you wanted to take a quick look:
