JD 5525 training seat - pics!

ddivinia · Jan 31, 2008

I finally got around to taking some pics of the new training seat in the 5525. I even got a "model" to demo it.

We had to bend the PTO handle a tad to make it clear - no big deal.

That is awesome. May I ask the cost of that set-up? My son is quickly outgrowing the harness I use to take him on the tractor.

Cool looks like the little one is ready for work!

It won't be long until he'll want to switch seats!

I have not gotten the bill. I think it was like $340 or so.

We've got that same seat in the 6420 on the farm. My nieces and nephew love to ride with their grandpa in there. It sure beats the heck out of an upside down 5 gallon bucket like I grew up with!

5525 was $41K and then I spent around $10K for the loader with grapple bucket and installed the 3rd mid SCV (whole new joystick, etc.) With all the other goodies, add another grand or 2.
