Default Passenger Ejection Seat Mod.

Ever been driving down the road and have a passenger who makes idiotic comments like, "OOO, look at that dodge!" or "Man that's a nice chevy." Or even worse, if you never had the wonderful experience of taking your mother-in-law to a doctor to get a boil lanced, consider yourself lucky. But each of these situations calls for the necessity of a Passenger Ejection Seat Mod. First, you need to have a custom T-top installed with power retracting panels. Second, mount 4 springs off an Ivan Stewart pro-comp truck under the passengers seat, compressed, with a hair trigger solenoid release. Third, install a three inch diameter RED Launch Button (ala 'Warner Bros Cartoons' 1970) on the dash with the words, "DON'T PUSH" written above. This mod will give you the means to launch infidels, people with lower intestinal bloating and in-laws with flabby cellulite legs and diarhea. Good Luck!

All I want to know is where the heck did you find the 3" red button? Biggest we could find was 2 1/4". And be sure to use explosive bolts to tiedown the seat for the correct effect.....

And don't forget a 1/4" steel cable to keep the seat from departing with your [former] guest.
Make sure to set the length just right to keep the seat from scratching the paint on you roof.

ahhh yes! the best mod of them all. unfortunatly the last time i used it, i forgot to release the seatbelt. needless to say, i scratched the paint, had blood all over the place and lost 2 of the 4 IS springs! but i did get rid of that pesty passenger!!!! (note to self, design addendum to passenger eject mod to incorporate a seatbelt release to avoid costly interior detailing fees to remove blood)

Wink Re: Passenger Ejection Seat Mod.

You better mount the trigger switch outside the reach of the passenger, or they will self-eject right after saying "Er- uh what's this here RED button for".

Sometimes the best feature of my truck is an empty passenger seat.

Does anyone know if the sunroof in the Crewmax could be rigged to open in conjunction with such a modification?

I'd personally go with a "soft top". Clean ejection, no chance of the "out-laws" leaving a trail behind them and most importantly, no chance of them having a "misfire" and bouncing all over hell inside my truck.

True to my morbid fascination with this idea I had to read the post. This brings back a memory of a guy I fired within ten minutes of being on the job site. He had looked me dead in the eye and deliberately drove a mower through a flowerbed. Aside from toasting the blades with the mulch that was in there he did several hundred dollars' worth of damage to the landscaping.

He had no transportation because he was just out of prison. Part of what I do in my philanthropic mission is that I sit on the Board of Directors for an agency that helps men and women re-assimilate back into society after prison. We also work with their families and counsel the children in after-school programs to keep them out of trouble. From time to time I have taken on a newly released prisoner to teach them a work ethic, landscaping skills, accountability, and self-confidence. Most have done very well and moved forward with their lives.

This particular gentlemen required a ride back to the house where he was staying with his sister. We discussed why he was being fired and he told me, among many other things, that he did not like white people (we are pecker woods) and how he used to abuse whites in prison. While he is running his mouth we are rolling down the freeway and I am wondering to myself if it is possible to unlatch his seat belt, open the door against a 55 MPH wind, and push him out while staying in my lane. I did not push him out but the thought was a frighteningly realistic one.

An ejection seat would have been overly tempting so I am glad it is not a reality outside of James Bond movies. Even if it were an option on my truck I would not have it for the same reason I do not own a gun.

I have a completely different take on this....Why eject them out the top and risk scratching your paint and denting the bed? I think that the seat bottom should be rigged like a trap door, and it fly open, dropping them to the highway...granted, this works best if your tundra is lifted. Then you wouldn't have to worry about the seat belt or sunroof modifications.
