99-2000 Escalade seats vs stock leather seats

kylenautique · Apr 15, 2024

I have oem leather seats in my 98 Silverado. My only complaint is the seat back doesn't sit up straight enough. I'm always slouching in the seat.. Do the Escalade seats have more adjustment in the seat back? Or, are they pretty much the same as the truck seats? Is there anyway to modify the original seats to allow the seat back to sit more straight up? I know I can swap the GMT900 seats in, but I'd like to keep the interior looking somewhat OEM..

They're exactly the same seats, just different pattern leather.

Yes same but with a Cadillac stitching pattern “frenched” were the seems are hidden from view. Do you have the electrical seat adjustments or manual? If elec. then try adjusting the 2 flat buttons as they are tilts and check your manual backrest maybe it’s not all the way up? As one notch is several in comparison with other vehicles. The absolute hardest thing for me is that these trucks never came with a memory option which is always a problem for me after a service or for some reason my boy messes with my seat! lol

And as an added note if you want the seat to be “truly “ straight then you’re going to be sitting as going forward as that’s part of just how these seats are. But that’s with the electric seat. But I would double check all of your adjustments bye not sitting in the seat at first. Then get in an adjust the seat.
