A Planted Technology low seat bracket for the Toyota 4Runner, fifth generation, 2009 onwards. Part number SB289.
The lowest of three heights Planted make for this vehicle, alongside the medium and the tall. These are genuinely different parts, so the choice matters.
Who actually wants the low one
Tall drivers, anyone wearing a helmet in the vehicle, and anyone running a cage or roof console that eats headroom. It is also the right answer if you simply find the standard 4Runner position higher than you like, which some people do.
If the commanding view over the bonnet is a large part of why you own it, go medium or tall. On a 4Runner that view is how you place the front wheels off road, so losing it is a real cost.
The fifth generation
Toyota kept it in production almost unchanged from 2009 to 2024, body on frame with a proper transfer case, long after every rival went to a monocoque. That is why they hold value and why people build them.
Tell us your height and how it is used and we will recommend a height.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Lexus Planted Technology Frames Updated For 2026, and Customer Car: Subaru Impreza With Corbeau RRS Seats and Planted Technology Brackets. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Toyota 4Runner. Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Planted frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
