Seat Risers for Lifetime Manta Angler Kayak

2" Seat riser kit for Lifetime Manta Angler Kayaks.

These reuse the stock hardware, so you don't need any hardware to install these, although I added #10 washers on my front risers. Be careful not to overtighten the stock mounting screws! The screws for the front risers thread directly into the plastic of the Kayak and can easily strip the plastic if overtightened. 

The rear risers just slide on the back of the seat, and have been designed with an opening to provide a consistent clamping force. This keeps them from easily falling off when removing the seat, but they will still rotate. There is an optional screw hole on the rear risers, this would allow someone to drill into their seat and fix the rear risers in place with a #10 screw. This is just an option, I have not fixed mine into place and they function great. 

The seat should snap into the front risers with a light snap (lighter than the stock mounts). I wanted to keep this on the lighter side to avoid damaging the mounting screw threads when removing the seat. I don't believe there should be a need for a heavy clamping force with the added angle. In my tests they feel very secure on the water, and I have no problem leaning back into my seat. 

I designed these to work with PETG, other materials may work, but most PLAs would likely not be a good option. They were also made specifically for the Lifetime Manta Angler, I've not tested them on any other Kayak.
