Twisted Stitch
Rhino UTV Seats
New Aggressor Bucket Seats!
|
Introduction
Theres a new seat on the market twisting the arms of the competition. With a nice line up of seats for your Rhino's and UTV's to Trophy Karts, Trucks, Jeeps, Rock Crawlers and more. Interested in taking a closer look we contacted Twisted Stitch to find out more. After talking with Leo about there direct Rhino fit "Aggressor" seat we were definitely interested in a set for our Project Rhino. I've been wanting to put seats in our Rhino after the first couple rides. The comfort and security of a nice suspension seat makes a world of difference. Needless to say I ordered up a pair of there Aggressors in tweed and vinyl. I opted to go a color but have always liked the plain blacks the best. We did however add the black graphite vinyl for the sides and back. Turned out good!
About the Seats
The Aggressor is considered a "suspension" seat that has easy direct fit mounting with the ability to move the seat forward or back to your preference. Other options include shoulder or slot style 5-point harness options. High side hip bolsters, integrated headrests, custom colors schemes, materials, patterns, piping and more. Check out how our seats turned out!
More about the Seats
As you can see the seats are nicely made and put together well. The multiple position Rhino direct fit mounting is beneficial as well. I prefer my seat all the way back, as far as I can go but the mounts on these seats gives the option to set it up for any driver. While we were swapping seats I opted to install some flat seat bases but forgot to order a set before the seats were ready. None the less, im happy with were it sits me using the stock bases. Height wise it actually feels about the same as the stock seats felt. Of course its a night and day difference when it comes to comfort though. As mentioned numerous times before, the need for a good set of seats was one of the first things I said it needed. Over a year has gone by putting products on this Rhino none of which were seats. Just been too busy installing and testing all the other great stuff I guess. O well, im glad we waited and were able to take a look at these new seats to hit the market. Few more photo's.
  
Installation
As you can see in the above pictures the seats fit directly to the stock mounting bases and or aftermarket "flat style" bases. Twisted Stitch includes all the necessary hardware for the mounts just supply the base. As mentioned before I like to have my seats as far back as possible so if thats what you like too this is were I mounted mine. (sorry no exact measurements) ended up positioning the mounts about 2/3 the way up the slide mount. See pictures below. A little trial and error resulted in a nice fit.

Comfort
What a difference over the stock low back rubber seats!! Remembering again why I wanted new seats so bad in the beginning. These seats are very comfortable and provide all the support needed to keep you locked in. Adding some new seats not only added more comfort but also helped with the overall ride quality. A little more "suspension" in your seats helps smooth out our Rhino's already plush ride. The tweed and vinyl craftsmanship looked excellent as did the seat frame work and suspension design. Definitely up there with the other top brand seats. No regrets what so ever going with the Twisted Stitches, check out there website for more info.
