improving tractor seat

[DDT]

So why dont they fore/aft in your seats? That would help the ride a bunch

Has anyone found a swiveling suspension seat? I have the l75 backhoe on my l2800 and it is a pain to get off and lower the seperate seat every time I use the hoe, Would be nice to just lift the legs and swing around.

CARMAC SEATS - Truck & Industrial Suspension Seats I have been looking at these

anyone replace or modify the seat for a smother ride, or added on with arm rests, my L4400 after disking for a couple hours, my back feels like I have been horseback riding, was looking for a sizzor type base or shock absorber

Have you seen this thread, I might be the same problem... http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/kubota-owning-operating/129978-l3400-2800-suspension-seat.html

My first tractor has a simple two spring seat. I improved it somewhat by putting a partially inflated 8" inner tube under it. That did help but was nowhere near what a suspension seat offers.

I think you'll be surprised at how much better it actually is.. I notice a big difference in mine over ground that used to jar me around pretty hard. It still bottoms and gives you a gentle "thump" over big bumps, but a lot softer than it used to be.

..and it is adjustable at first I bottomed out too much and tighten it till it only happen once in a while.
