2012 SR5 4runner third row seat question

[Edwardm419]

Hello,

I own a 2012 4runner that has the third row seating. Would I be able to fold down both rows completely flat? I've been trying but it looks like its not possible. Or is it only possible on the ones that don't have third row seating?

It should fold down flat. You need to pull the strap so the head rest falls down. Then, theres a latch in the center of the seat you need to pull.

I've folded the third row before. The middle row is the one that I'm not sure if it folds down or not.

Yeah thats folds down too. There is too latches right next the headrest on each side on the second row. You might have to move up the driver and passenger seat just a little bit so the headrests of the 2nd row can fold down completely.

It doesn't fold down completely flat, and AFAIK there is no way to make it flatter than what you get when you push down the seats of the second row.

The second row make a kind of slope, yes, but I had no problem putting anything in there because of that.

Thanks for the info, I'm gonna try it out.
