I find my base with Katskinz (sp) to be as comfortable as my previous F150's. I'm 6'2" for reference. I had a Tacoma prior to the Broco and those seats and sitting position are awful. Added seat jackers and it didn't help at all. YMMV.
Parts have been produced just waiting for final fit and then powder coating. I would guess I'll have the finished product within the next couple of weeks.
I installed Badlands 4 door 2.7 non-sas on my base 2 door non-saw 2.3. Gained 2.5" front and 3" rear and sit dead level. Added 315/70/70 KO2's and I'm 1/2" higher than a SAS model. Less brake dive and maybe a tad stiffer but not enough to be a factor. Great option for us base folks.
I paired it with a Pedal Commander and it works great. I have the 7 speed so can't speak for the auto. There are 8 adjustments per mode so you can dial it in to how you like it. I seemed to have settled on Sport 0.
My 23 base got the sound deadening which was included on the original order back in 2020/21 whenever it was but I also didn't get the roof rack or aux switches that I did order.
I took the rear seats out of my 2 door and just stored them in the attic space of the office/studio suite above my garage. The 2 door seats are not large and my attic space is spray foamed so its "conditioned space".
