After 10 hours, not convinced I've got the new seat on my B3030...

I've got a call into my salesman - but perhap's y'all can help me figure it out... After using the machine a bit side by side with my NH - I feel like I'm falling off it - especially going downhill. At first my backside was really enjoying the suspension vs. the relatively fixed NH seat, so I didn't notice the slope...

My seat looks like the old one in Messicks' picture new kubota seat Note the extra horizontal "line" on the back cushion of the old seat and the sculpted shape on the bottom cushion of the new one.

Here's a picture of mine from this thread new B3030 seat

Yes, it looks like the old seat to me too.

Old. Same as mine on bx24. You've got the deluxe armrest though.

It would have been a better seat if they had deflated it a bit.

I bought my B3030 the same week as you and my dealer had not received any of the new seats from Kubota at the time.

Thanks guys - I just got off the phone with the salesman - He said he'll get me a new seat as soon as he can. He didn't have any in stock with the armrests...

Hazmat, I think all the seats are drilled, and tapped for the armrests so you could use yours on the new seat....

Hmmm - I'll check it out - I've got to pick up new blade for the MMM (hit a piece of rebar from my fence project) and my 50 hour supplies this weekend.

I've got to pick up new blade for the MMM

Curious ... will you simply lift the tractor off the ground with the FEL to change the blade?

Word on the street is $0 to < $50 plus your old seat, depending on some other factors like how recently you bought the tractor, if your dealer is a nice guy and/or wants to see you coming in regularly, etc.
