Can't really tell what you're talking about because there isn't really a link there, but if you're talking about their RCI plastic seats w/ vinyl covers on them, I had them in my rail buggy w/ 5-point harnesses and it wasn't too bad.

A couple of hours wasn't bad at all, but after about 4 hours of bouncing around, my ass got a little sore, but you can always put another layer of foam padding under the covers and I think that would have helped out a bunch.

I don't think the plastic seats were any more uncomfotable than bouncing around in the stock seats in my jeep. It's just a fact . . . you're ass is going to hurt after awhile :D

Actually, now that I think about it, as soon as the seats in my current jeep start to sag a little more, I think I'll replace them with Summit's.

If you do a search this was talked about extensively a few weeks ago.

I've got them in my jeep. I find them comfortable ( I'm 6ft 190 lbs) but big guys might find them too narrow.

i run them and they are great. as i have said before i personally think they are the best seat for an open aired trail rig. if they get wet...oh well. if they get dirty/muddy...oh well hose them off. they will hold water so drill a few drain holes in them.:D

I was looking through my JEGS cataloge and they have basically the same seat for $35(I think thats what the RCI are too) but just another source...and for you big guys get a summit or jegs cataloge and start looking at the seats they do have different widths and such but you may not be able to find one for $35 though:D

Beard (http://www.beardseats.com) makes off-road racing seats that are big and squishy. Kinda like a lazy-boy for your truck. A little pricy, though.
