I'm 6'1" and I wish i could make the seat go lower. 
Does this have something to do with mine being an '07? I hate how far up the seat sits even when I put it all the way down. hmm...

Hmmmm - are you a short @ss LoL
No offense intended LoL - im 6'4 and have the seat up as high as it will go (JK 07') - I like to get a good view of the trail when wheelin - .....
Do you have a long body and short legs??? Im the opposite - long legs and shorter body! - I use the maximum height & have the seat reclined a long way and chair slider all the way back - and my head just bumps the sound bar a tad occasionally -
Q. why do you have the chair set to minimum height?
I'm definately going to get after market seats - its easier for us in OZ because we dont have the OCS - Occupant classification system (driver weigh scale) and can bolt any ADR approved seat in!
Cheers Hunty

good idea!
this is genious. except.. one problem. i also drive with it all the way up.. and when i get back in i get mad that its down. however.. I just installed a lift, larger tires, and rockers so i no longer have decent side steps. now I cant easily just hop up onto the seat and turn in. damnit.

My solution was to pull the handle off and reposition it. The only position it wants to go back on is pointing straight down at the floor. It works 100 percent, never needing adjustment until you choose to.

My answer to the lowering seat mystery. I set the seat to the highest position, replaced the handle with a modified handle.Attachment 128058

why would you jack the seat up... i'm 6'4" and i have my seat on the floor and all the way back. i still have to bend my knees in order to keep from interfering with the steering wheel. if i jack myself up then my head will hit the sound bar.
it just doesn't make sense to me that being so tall.. why would you want to sit higher?
