Take the Punishment Out of Every Wave
The Springfield EZ-Ride 12" Shock Absorbing Pedestal Package is built for boaters who spend long days on the water and want their body to feel it less. The EZ-Ride system uses a spring-loaded inner post that absorbs vertical shock as you move through chop, reducing the jarring impact that wears you down on rough-water runs. It's a meaningful upgrade for anyone who fishes inshore, runs a center console, or simply wants a more comfortable ride at the helm.
This is a complete package — everything you need to install a shock-absorbing pedestal seat is included.
What's Included
- 12" EZ-Ride Shock Absorbing Pedestal — anodized aluminum, 3-1/2" outer post with 2-7/8" inner post; four-groove keyed design locks rotation and restricts unwanted movement
- 2-7/8" Locking Trac-Lock™ Swivel — rotates and locks your seat at any angle
- 9" Round Floor Base — standard round base for deck mounting
Key Features
- Spring-loaded shock absorption with 3-1/2" of vertical travel to soften wave impact
- Keyed four-groove post design prevents rotation and keeps the seat tracking straight
- Collar covers the bushing and inner post keys for a clean, finished look
- Anodized aluminum construction for corrosion resistance
- Tested to ABYC H31 dynamic and static load standards
- Designed for recreational inshore use
Best For
Inshore fishing boats, center consoles, and bay boats where you're running across chop regularly. The EZ-Ride is especially valuable on flats boats and skiffs where the ride can be punishing — the shock absorption makes a noticeable difference on long days. If you're standing to fish, this isn't the right setup; it's optimized for seated comfort while underway.
Parts Desk Insights
This package is complete and ready to install — post, swivel, and base are all included. The 2-7/8" post diameter is the heavy-duty standard, so if you're replacing an existing 2-7/8" series pedestal, this drops right in. If you need just the swivel separately, the Springfield 2-7/8" Locking Trac-Lock Swivel is the compatible match. For a non-shock-absorbing heavy-duty package in the same post series, the Springfield 2-7/8" Heavy-Duty Mainstay Pedestal Package is worth comparing. If you prefer the lighter 2-3/8" Plug-In system instead, the Springfield Plug-In Locking 3-Piece Pedestal Set is a popular alternative.
