Air Ride Seats

Brian, I want to change the driver and passenger seats in my 2017 Force to air ride. Can you give me the manufacturer and model of the seats that are used in the Force HD. Thank You

I'm no Brian but I'll try to help when I can. He may be me to the punch before I'm done with this post! The swivel pedestals we use are made by Atwood and the Seats themselves are from Lexington.

I had added air ride seats to our 2016 Force, make sure you have them add a 12v compressor to each seat. If not you have to have someone tap into the air lines, which made me nervous. There is already a 12v set of wires for each seat now, it controls the adjustment.

Good luck and enjoy, the air ride seats made a huge difference.

Halla, Did you use the seats that Dynamax uses, or did you use an outside source ? Thank You

Tsk tsk, you did not give him the air ride section young grasshopper.

We buy them Freightliner on the chassis already. Best bet is to source parts through them.

I wonder if it’s possible to have armrests added to the other side of the seats? It doesn’t appear clearance would be an issue.

I am interested in this too. But I have an 06' Dynaquest 320 that is using Bostrom seats....I think... Also the upholstery was custom for Dynamx because the DYNAQUEST logo is stitched into the head rest.

I use a thing called arm saver on the door, helps without the other arm rest

Thanks halla I will look that up. I do like the idea of having 2 armrests at the same height to keep me from sitting crooked. I am also looking into adding a grab handle above the window to give myself another option for left arm position.
