Kubota Treadle Pedal...

   / Kubota Treadle Pedal... #61  
I too raised the seat height 1" and added better suspension to the stock seat which hurts my ash after about 2 hrs. No problem horse ranch, hobby farm is what I do with a little local mowing mixed in for fuel money.
Another change that had to happen was the extension and proper stacking of the rear hydraulic controls. The OEM set of 3 levers where extremely short and nearly under the seat on the right side. I believe they were all the same size/height so you had to look or feel your way around to get the right one. That type of lever ID is not conducive to good operation.
How did you add "better suspension"?

A fully sychronized gear "shuttle shift" with a lever on the column would not be a bad option.....
Single pedal for speed control of both directions.
Like a payloader! ;-)

How did you add "better suspension"?
At first I tried some spring changes, different lengths and rates. Not much improvement... so I bought a better seat suspension base and adapted the OEM seat, the unit I bought online had a swivel feature which I liked from my previous tractors. The 45º giving a better position for gannon work. Unfortunately this feature does not work in this tractor because the station is so narrow my knees were in the draft control so I had to use just the suspension half of the seat mount I purchased. It's better, still not all I want but that was that.
