sounds like you need to put air in it
Texas Tornado Thanks this. -
Or she could have too much air in it now.
Texas Tornado Thanks this. -
6 months? Give the seat time to become broken in.
Texas Tornado Thanks this. -
Thank You for Repsonding but i tryed diff levels of air. and it still jolts to bottom, I would understand if i was hippo weight. But i not, i raised it all the way up that is not good. I guess for now i will be the Lone Jolting Driver.
Thank you agian.Be Safe out there and God Bless you

Thank you for responding : But no i tryed different levels of air. And if i was overweight, i could understand this reason but the seats feels like it"s broke with air in it dont make since. I drove Freight Shaker and a volvo and was in a 2011 International. None of them had seat issues. Ieven ask the shop if they could change it out.But you can guess the answer to that.
But thnx, U T/C Driver, God Bless you

I wish it was a new seat im the 2nd driver in this trk. Out of all the trks i drove this 2009-2010 International Pro star is the only seat i have ever had issues with.Diff air levels does not work. Even tryed back cushion, pillow on the bottom of seat on the back of the seat. I not big, just tall. Ask if the shop if they would change the seat out,well we know how that went
But Thank You for the advise you T/C ***God Bless you Driver,Be safe

Both seats are identical. Try swapping them. My 2010 had a seat cushion that had compacted to the consitancy of sandstone but it was like a new seat when I swapped. Four bolts and an air line fitting; really easy.
FrankTexas Tornado Thanks this. -
There are about 3 different seats in the ProStar depending how it was spec'd when ordered.
Mine has the National brand seats with about 10 buttons on the side for adjustment.Back cycler and lumbar adjustments.
It was a good seat for the first 200k but is now falling apart.
I found that dropping it to the floor rides just as good as with air in it.
I do inflate the bottom side cushions and the out sides of the back,it holds you in the seat better.
Looking at buying an Elite seat and putting it in myself. -
That was the first thing i done now both are wore out....lol!
