When you have a 3rd Gen Tacoma and you've run out of potential switch locations, or if you want to just play switches closer to the driver, this is where this simple upgrade tool comes into place. By marking the cut areas with the supplied templates, you then have an ideal location to mount the new bezel and add an OEM or aftermarket switch of your choice.

If you've ever found yourself at a point in the upgrading of your truck's seats, sometimes something silly happens like the seat rail handle spring comes off and you send way too much time trying to figure out how it goes back on. Here is a quick video showing how to get that spring back on.

When you upgrade your 5th Gen 4Runner to scheel-mann seats using the Tolerance Stack system: https://www.tolerance-stack.com/product-page/5th-gen-4runner-mounting-kit-driver-side You will need to install the replacement harness that connects the new fore/aft switch, to the seat motor, to the floor harness, to the seat heater computer, to the fuse, and to the blue connector to power the Klima fans. #ScheelMann #ScheelMannSeats #ToleranceStack #SeatUpgrade #ToyotaSeatUpgrade #4RunnerSeatUpgrade #AftermarketSeats #AutomotiveInnovation #5thGen4Runner #Toyota4Runner #4RunnerNation #Overland4Runner #ToyotaOffRoad #4RunnerBuilds

If you have a 5th Gen 4Runner and are considering our scheel-mann seat mounting system, the result is not a full manual setup. In order to be able to utilize the 4Runner's seat rails we needed to keep the fore/aft motor in place which means figuring out the wiring and the replacement switch for the motor's function. We think we nailed the looks. The seat motor, if you do not have seat memory, is just a two wire motor (ground and power) so it's function was easy to integrate. Now if you have seat memory then it means you have a 4-wire connector. We do have the connector solution for that BUT do keep in mind that you will lose that seat memory function by doing this seat upgrade.

We finally did it! The goal was to take a customer's ISRI L3 seat from their Freightliner 114SD and remove the seat to replace it with a scheel-mann Vario F seat so that they can get away from the uncomfortable stock seat and switch out with an ergonomic seat. The first step for us after tearing it all apart and figuring the seat and controls out, was to make a mount AND successfully bring over the airbase controls that could be moved over. In this case the height adjuster handle and the horizontal slider knob were moved ober and an accessory plate was designed to house those two AND to have a spot to mount the heating and venting switches from the Klima Vario F seat.

For those looking to upgrade their seats to the scheel-mann Vario F seats in your 100 Series Land Cruiser, its good to know what is under your seats and what needs to be dealt with to keep your dash and OEM seat heater switches happy. This is specifically a 2006 Land Cruiser so make sure this is for the 2002/3 - 2007 model years only. The earlier 100 Series trucks have a different but mostly similar setup.

When installing your new scheel-mann seats into your Tacoma, FJ Cruiser or 4Runner the correct way using the Tolerance Stack mounting kits, you will reach a point on the passenger seat where you need to compensate for the weight difference between the OEM seat and the scheel-mann Vario F plus the mounting kit. There are two ways to accomplish this: 1. You can follow the instruction guide and weight your seat and use the supplied washers to adjust the spring weight and "dial-in" the correction manually, or 2. You can use TechStream to conduct a zero-point seat calibration. This video is for those going with option #2.

As part of the design in upgrading your 5th Gen 4Runner's OEM seats into a set of scheel-mann Vario seats, we need to integrate the fore/aft motor to keep the install seamless and integrate the sensors needed to keep the truck's systems happy. This involved retaining the OEM seat rails, harness and motor assembly. Everything else gets discarded with the OEM seat. Here you can see that early on in the development we were able to successfully tie into the motor's switching and control it using an aftermarket switch and OEM accurate harness connectors and terminal pins.

Upgrading the OEM clapped out seats in this 1st Gen Tacoma to a sweet scheel-mann Vario F for a huge upgrade,

Starting with the basics Yes we’ve always known we don’t have much to offer by way of videos. We have been so entrenched in solving design and manufacturing issues that we hadn’t expelled much effort into the video world. Well we are here today to start trying. We figured it was a good start with the basics. After having as many conversations as we’ve had in the short time Tolerance Stack has been around, we have discovered that our costumer base really runs the gamut of lifestyle and expertise. Issues that we figured were intrinsic, if not basic, were just that obvious to some folks. So we are removing all judgement on mechanical skill levels and will start at the beginning. If you have made the leap to committing to a pair of scheel-mann Vario F seats into your Tacoma. FJ Cruiser or 4th Gen 4Runner (5th Gen on its way, as seen in this video) then maybe showing how to just remove the seat would be helpful. We don’t go into super detail but just an overview of the basics. Each video we drop will go on all of our social media accounts going forward. www.tolerance-stack.com #soreback #tolerancestack #TacomaSeats #FJCruiserSeats #4thGen4RunnerMaintenance #4thGen4RunnerFamilia #Toyota4thGen4Runner #4thGen4Runner #Toyota4Runners5thGeneration #Toyota4RunnerMods #Toyota4Runner4theGenOwners #3rdGenTacoma #ToyotaFJCruiser

When you have made the commitment to upgrade to scheel-mann seats for your 2nd Gen Tacoma (or FJ Cruiser or 4th Gen 4Runner), the first step is of course removing the seats from the vehicle which you can see in the SEAT REMOVAL video: https://youtu.be/rIYcBSybkVA Once the driver seat is out you now have to remove the hardware necessary to remove the two sliding rails needed to complete the install onto a Tolerance Stack mounting bracket for your scheel-mann Vario seat. Once the seat rails are out, proceed to the next video if needed to remove your rail "towers": https://youtu.be/KdViRqbx4X8 Tools needed: • Wire cutters • Philips driver • T40 Torx socket • 12 and 14mm sockets • Sharp razor blade General steps: • Lay the seat flat on a workbench • Cut the hog rings holding the back panel/flap to the frame • Remove the single screw in the rear • Remove side panel plastic • Remove the four T40 Torx screws on the inboard rail • Remove the seat belt buckle and its bracket (save) • Remove front two bolts to remove the front cross-member • Remove the four T40 bolts on the outboard rail • Access and remove the two bolts UNDER the fabric - either by prying up the material or by cutting slits into the material • With those two bolts removed you can now remove the rails from the cross-member • The inboard rail will still have the wiring harnesses, undo the retaining clips to remove the inboard rail • Undo the rest of the harness clips and remove the wire harness connected to the seat belt and bracket www.tolerance-stack.com Sure!

When you have made the commitment to upgrade to scheel-mann seats for your FJ Cruiser, the first step is of course removing the seats from the vehicle which you can see in the SEAT REMOVAL video: https://youtu.be/rIYcBSybkVA Once the driver seat is out you now have to remove the hardware necessary to remove the two sliding rails needed to complete the install onto a Tolerance Stack mounting bracket for your scheel-mann Vario seat. Tools needed: • Wire cutters • Philips driver • T40 Torx socket • 12 and 14mm sockets • Sharp razor blade General steps: • Lay the seat flat on a workbench • Remove the seat slider handle by prying the retention springs • Remove the four T40 Torx screws on the inboard rail • Remove front two bolts to remove the front cross-member • Remove the seat belt buckle and its bracket (save) • Place the inboard rail to the side • Unplug the proximity sensor • Remove the single screw in the rear • Remove side panel plastic, front edge slides forward • Remove the four T40 bolts on the outboard rail • Place the outboard rail to the side • Undo the rest of the harness clips and remove the wire harness connected to the seat belt and bracket • Now that rails are out, remove the large black plastic clips on the back of the rails that are hold on by clips accessible from the outside of the rail NOTE: if you have rust on your rails and it bothers you, you can simply use a wirewheel to remove the rust. If the rest is particularly bad you can soak JUST the rails, NOT the sliders (which houses the bearings and grease), into a tub of vinegar overnight. www.tolerance-stack.com

*This only applies to 2ND and 3RD Generation Tacomas with OEM manual seats* Once the OEM seat is out of the Tacoma, and the seat rails have been removed from the seat, its now time to remove the "tower" from the rails. This is necessary because the towers are not used in the installation of the Tolerance Stack seat mount. In order to get the scheel-mann Vario seat as close to the seat rails as possible, to keep the overall seat height similar to OEM, the towers must be removed. The process in removing the seat seat towers is very easy but does require some tools to make the job easier: • Goggles • Wire wheel with a drill mount • Small cut-off wheel with a drill mount • Black Sharpie  • Drill and drill bits • Small hand file Once tools are in hand then its time to prep the rails for installation: • Mount the rails onto scrap wood to have it rest secured while working on them • Find the two spot welds on the tower portion of the rails • Use wire wheel to remove any rust in the area • Use a Sharpie to mark the spot welds with a circle • Use the cut-off wheel to cut an "X" in the spot welds • Starting with a 3/8" drill bit start drilling out the "X" on the spot welds • Move up sizes of drill bits as necessary • Once the tower is off you do not need to do any more drilling • Use the hand file to smooth out the area and remove any burrs NOTE: Be sure not to get any metal shavings into the seat rail because there is grease and bearings in the sliding rail. Also, if your rails are particularly rusty you can use the same wire wheel to remove the unwanted rust and/or you can let the rails sit upside down in a bath of vinegar over night to remove the rust. Be sure to NOT let the sliding rails sit in the vinegar bath. www.tolerance-stack.com

This video was done awhile ago but it displays the full functionality of our new Tacoma/FJ Cruiser cross-member design along with the engineered load-cell array repositioning brackets. Basically the point of this was to get away from the universal slider and super basic mounts typically used and actually design a solution that keeps the OEM rails and continues to use the load-cell array, SRS proxy plug-in, and everything else needed to keep everything OEM and working properly so that you can upgrade your clapped-out seat to an orthopedic scheel-mann usa seat.

Before mounting the Klima heated/cooled seat from scheel-mann, and before mounting it to the Tolerance Stack Klima mounts, its best to understand what all of the wiring harnesses attach to and where they plug in.

When installing scheel-mann’s the Klima seats, using Tolerance Stack Klima compatible mounts, you will need to route the harness correctly to prevent binding.
