Anyone done the seat lift mod with the newer single piece seat?
If so, any additional pitfalls?

It will be fine. Its no different. If you have the S40 than you will have no issues remoutning th seat. If like me, you have the savage with a 2 piece, than its a bit of a squezze toget the seat under the backrest, but its do-able.

Here's a link to the pics of my mod. It didn't quite raise it enough for me, so I just put the tab on the front of the seat on
top
of the hold-down plate for now, and that put it up enough extra to be comfy. Of course that way I definitely had to make sure and get the two bolts on the side good and snug, because they're all that keep the seat from pivoting side to side now.
I took some measurement, and am going to dig through the scrap bin at work this weekend and see if I can come up with something taller and better looking. Modding is a slippery slope indeed!

Great mod, did it on my 07. I added some hard rubber on the frame tubes near front (over existing ones) to keep it rigid.
