looking for a better seat

Mayhem · Mar 13, 2005

Well shes on! Feels good but it does sit a lot higher. I'll find out this spring when I get some seat time cutting the grass if it makes a difference.If it feels too high I'll have to make some adjustments.The biggest problem with lowering the seat is the springs,I would have to lower the brackets they sit on. I'm trying to keep it as stock as possible because when I can afford it I want to buy the Woods B6000 Backhoe for it and they have a kit to make the seat swivel so you can use it for the backhoe and tractor.If I go messing around to much I may cause myself more work when I get the BH.
Heres some Pictures

<font color="orange"> I like it ! It looks good! </font> I think that sitting higher may not be a bad thing. I think it would be more comfortable and heck more visability over FEL is never a bad thing. Now if it works with the BH then its a win win.
I am going to have to look at that, would be a nice addition. Add a canopy and 12v fan and heck you would have a pretty plush ride /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Sitting higher felt good because I have long legs,however reaching the steering wheel I felt like I was stretching. Have to wait till spring, Cutting 2 acres of grass at a time will tell me how it feels. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

This was a pic that junkman posted showing the mirror but he made a point of showing the different steering wheel. This is a Euro tractor so it may or may not be avaliable. I thought this might come in handy /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif For better comfort value in the stock seat.
