Hi All. Just wondering if anyone has experienced the seats in their KK making a creeking sound as the vehicle travels over rough roads?

My driver's seat on my '07 creeked last winter when it got cold. When I investigated it, I found that one of the seat mounting bolts was never tightened all the way down from the factory. It had about 1/8" before it was even snugged down.

Oh ya man, my passenger seat creaked from about 5,000 -7000 miles. A lot of people on the Nitro Forums complained about it to. It might still be creaking but I dont hear it.........I really love my sound system :twisted:

Funny you should mention that. I just notice a creaking in my passenger seat this weekend while my wife was sitting there. I had her move the seat back forward and backward to see if that stopped it....it didn't.
I then asked her to move the seat itself back and forth...that didn't work either.

Then I asked her to bounce up and down in the seat....for no apparent reason but to watch the jiggling :twisted: ...that didn't work either.

It seems to only happen when the passenger seat is occupied. In my case it rarely is, so I'm not too worried about it.
