I have the Flexsteel leather captain's chairs in the front of my coach.

My problem on the driver's seat is that one armrest is higher than the other. I've searched high and low looking for an adjustment screw to no avail.

This should just be a setscrew adjustment somewhere, but I can't find it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Paul,
Look on the front end of each arm rest. There may be a small plastic lever. Lifting the lever will allow hight adjustment of the arm rest. This is how my arm rests work.

I have FlexSteel captain chairs in my MH. Feel under the armrests or if they are like mine, you can raise them up. Under each armrest is a small "wheel" which can be turned and this will lower or raise the armrests. Same thing on the passenger seat up front.

Hope this helps.

I appreciate the advice, but my chairs have none of the points for adjustment suggested by anyone.

My wife has convinced me that I am the problem and out of whack so I guess I'll leave the arm rests alone!

Happy New Year.

Paul,

Your signature indicates you have an '08 rig. Why not have the chair examined at a dealer under warranty?

Prove to your wife that you're not out of whack!

P.S. My oldest son does a morning radio show on KRAB in Bakersfield. His stage name is Meathead.

Unfortunately, Buck passed away in March of 2006. His nightclub, The Crystal Palace, lives on.

We were there for our company Christmas party and enjoyed good food and great live music.

If you're ever in town . . .

Paul i have the same problem with my coach. The dealer couldn;t fix it so (because of some other things it is going back to the factory) where they will R/R it in addition to being lower in one side check the seat and see it it is tilted instead of stright. I am not sure but i think some one left mine back when they put the slide in ot out during display and didn't notice it
