I have only had my Classic Silverado for 3 weeks...and my back has hurt for the entire time, except when I don't drive the truck for a few days....

Seems like the sides of the seat push against my kidneys too hard.

Anyone else have this sort of trouble??? Seems silly, I know, but it is for sure the truck seats. If I drive with a pillow behind my back is it ok....

Any ideas??? THanks:damnit:

my 97 seats do hurt my back after a lot of driving. But I just adjusted my lumbar support and it fixed the problem

NO lumbar support... I would have liked it but this was the only truck I could find with MOST of the options I wanted....ugh!!:damnit:

I noted this morning that if I put a very small pillow behind my back that the sides of the seat do not rest on my kidneys....hence, no pain. I think I am going to opent he seat back cover at the bottom and slide a piece of sheet foam into the front side of the seat back...hope it works...:word: :word:

Thats the worst option that GM did when the took out the lumbar in all the cloth seats, the only way to get comfortable seats is to get leather, and most people don't want to pay an extra 3 to 5g
