I have a 2019 1500 Classic. Big Horn quad cab. In the back my seats have been raised 3/4 of an inch and the seats won't lean forward like they did in my Laramie. How much do I need to cut off the hook in the back to make this work. I need the space

The best answer is "as little as possible". You may want to try just removing the nylon glides to see if that gives you the clearance you need.

I had to hacksaw about a 1/4 inch off the metal hook even with the 3/4 spacers

Thanks for the replies. I didn't think it was much that had to be cut

I feel it is best to cut at bottom of nylon and not add the spacer under seat

I had to raise the seat to fit the Fox Box under it
