I'm thinking of a 2006-2007 LBZ, maybe even a 2012-2014....just curious if the 2nd row seats recline even just a small amount, or are they fixed?

I don't know of any pickup 2nd row that has reclining seats, due to the back of the cab being right there.

Ok, I didn't think they did, was hoping maybe a few degrees if needed and if the seats could be moved forward slightly to gain that few degrees.

Lil research I did said they are attached to rear wall. Saw some stuff about modding them to fold down. I would imagine you could just as easy mod the bottom forward with a bracket to angle the seat back.

On the 99-06, the crew cab's rear seatback folds down for cargo (seat bottoms flip forward, like the 2nd row on LWB 370s) while the ext'd cab's seat bottom folds up, instead.

Reason I mention is that with the ext'd cab's seatback permanently affixed to the back wall, it's nearly vertical compared to the crew's. I believe it's thinner (less padding) too, although I'm not positive on that.
