Am I missing something....Ford crew cab rear seat?

[ACZL]

Have a '17 F350 XLT CC that's 60/40 split. The 40 portion seat back will tilt forward along w/ seat bottom will tilt up. The 60 side of things, well that's a lil different. The seat bottom will tilt up, BUT I do not see any pull tab to have seat back tilt forward. This stinks as I don't know why it wouldn't and it should to gain some add'l storage behind seat. Am I missing or not seeing something to get it to tilt?

Interesting, my 12 and current 16 F-350 both had the lug wrench and extension rods for spare on floor behind 60 side.

Here is the solution BuiltRight Industries

Made in the USA, quality product, web site has a video that shows everything you need to know. Also available on Amazon.

Yes, there is a lot of storage behind that seat. This release latch is very well made and the installation is only a one beer job :B

You will notice the on the back of the seat, the covering material is slightly different than the other side and it has some sharp framing that I covered with Edge Trim.

By watching the video you will be able to release the seat back and check it all out before buying the release latch.

Good luck

This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is what I have done. Here is a photo of the latch on the back of my driver's side rear seat back and the emergency equipment I keep stored behind there:

I miss the older CC seats with the fold out metal racks that gave you a very large flat storage/cargo space. The new seats 12 and up suck.

I wish they would have continued with the Super Duty line and not cheaped out by producing a F150 with the words “Super Duty” pressed into the hood.

Our friend came by the other day with a new F150 Lariat with most of the bells and whistles with V8. 60K!!!!

Mine came with a pull strap in the glove box along with a few other components. If you search online there are several YouTube articles on how to get the seat back to unlatch it.

I had the same question, but what I found is there is no room behind, mine has the stereo speaker and amp behind it, and the motor for the power sliding window.

I found a good way is to fold the bottom seat cushion up on the 60 side, and you can reach from the 40 side to see the latch.

No room really anyway. I love the new flip up flip down seats. Actually love the new truck. Drive better drive quieter and no loud Diesel engine either. However the pricing is getting ridiculous.

as said above, there's a way to release it but the inverter is behind there so there is pretty much no room back there.

Odd they would change it. My 2012 F350 CC both sides the backs tilt forward allowing some storage behind each side.

[jfkmk]

The Jack is located behind the 40% side, but there's nothing behind the 60%. You can buy a latch release that will allow you to put the 60% side down, but I'm not sure how much storage you gain.

Have you read your owners manual, might find what you're looking for.

I take my backseat out entirely. Lots more room that way,
