Comparing seat replacement for 379

I had the ISRI in my day cab and have the grammar kingman now.
I had the ISRI for 7-8 years. The lower cushion was just starting to break down and was developing a small tear. A great seat would buy it again.
I have a Gammer Kingman now. It was part of the deal i made when I bought this truck. It was a new takeout from a 579 Pete. It's very similar to the ISRI. It appears to be made as well. But I found the ISRI to be more comfortable.

 

Most every truck I've had started out with had a National. They kill my lower back. I'm not old (yet) overweight or in poor physical shape. But two hours in a cheap seat and I'm ready to get out and stretch. 2000 for something that lasts for more than 7 years is peanuts in trucking. I am in rough riding trucks. Was in a short (210") W9 now I'm in a slightly longer 388 but has air trac. The seat makes a difference.

 

Its a wide seat. I would definitely check measurements before buying if that would cause you a problem.

I only posted that because its what I have and is a very comfortable seat and I thought it was reasonably priced compared to other seats with similar options.

I don't know. On thing I like about the Grammer over the ISRI is that it will rock back like a rocker. lower seat and back move together.
I like the fact that the ISRI lowers all the way after you get out. The Grammer stays the same height.
The more I think about if I was to buy another seat it'd be an ISRI. It fits me better.
I don't think you will go wrong either way both are built very well. They both are very heavy compared to a National.

 

The Minimizer is an ISRI. If you don't like it don't buy the ISRI. If it was the firmness of the ISRI/Minimizer you didn't like you'll like the Grammer even less. They are not big cushy overstuffed seats. Both are firm and supportive.

 

Yea

Yes that's a Grammer seat.
