Key Specs:

Aftermarket Seating for the Kenworth T170

The OEM Air-Cushion Plus seat provides a good baseline for comfort, but drivers looking for improved ergonomics, durability, or custom features often choose to upgrade.

Fitment Considerations:

  • The T170 cab supports most standard or mid-profile suspension seats

  • Low-profile seats may also be used to maximize headroom

  • The factory bolt pattern is typically compatible with major aftermarket seat brands, though mounting hardware may be needed if the truck does not have a flat floor.

Recommended Seat Features:

  • Intermediate or high-back support (for longer route drivers)

  • Air suspension or mechanical suspension options

  • Compact seat base for tighter cab layouts

  • Adjustable lumbar, armrests, and seat depth for driver-specific fit
