Weight of 3rd Row Seats?

[samster747]

Anybody know approx weight of the the 3rd row seats? I feel it's at least a 100lbs. Looking to lift my SR5 and trying to decide what coils I should put in the back. Maybe OME medium coils. I feel like it's almost level stock with the 3rd row seats and I personally wouldn't mind having the rake as I expect to tow next year with a turtleback trailer.

I'm pretty sure one guy that took them out said they were kinda heavy and felt like maybe 50lbs.. each I assumed.

So yeah 80-100 is probably close.

Wouldn't airlifts be in the picture to level things out instead of having to calculate a static weight?

It sounds like he actually did weigh them... so 100lbs...

I weighed mine when I took them out and they are right at 50 lbs. each. This is the seat only without all the other hardware.

So about 100lbs like I figured. Thanks for the info. I have two recaro car seats in the back as well at 25lbs each. So without anything, I’m already at ~150lbs. I think that explains the almost even level I currently have. Looking to do either 6112/5160 bilstein or OME lift, but haven’t decided on the rear coils. I do like the forward rake as I stated earlier. Will be getting a Gobi rack as well. The guy I spoke to today at the install shop suggested I go with the heavy OME coils based on the weight already with seats and for towing the turtleback and the roof rack. Thoughts? No further add ons planned.

Really​ interested to hear how it goes once you decide. I also have the third row and usually have a Yakima hitch rack on the back so have about the same extra weight. I'm currently thinking 6112/5160 with the sway away springs, hoping to get 1.5' in the back and 1.75 up front.
