At the bottom in the front of both the Drivers and Pass seat where the Adj lever is the fabric where it is hooked to the metal cross bar of the seat keeps coming unhooked. It has a plastic clip channel that I can reinstall over the metal bar but within a few days the front fabric is hanging loose again.

 

Its an 03 RCLB Sierra 13k miles, was curious if anyone has had this happen and if a TSB exists on a fix. I figured I can RTV the clip channel and reistall it but thought I would chk here first. I would like to keep it out of the dealer if possible as its never been back and its a crap shoot on what they will hose up in the process of a fix!

 

Thanks for the help in advance,

My driver side seat had the same prooblem. After closer inspection I noticed that I was only rehooking the front edge and not the side (closest to the console). After I hooked the side and front it hasn't come loose again.

I checked the side fabric and its all attached and clipped on fine. So it appears to be just an issue on mine with the front.

 

Anyone else out there have this issue now or in the past....or am I just "special"? :seeya:

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver.

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps.

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
