Anyone know if any of the seats with arm rests will fit?

I just want a good quality seat. Good padding and thick steel pan.

Those Hoye seats (also sold by everybody else) are in my opinion too small.

I'm not very tall, probably would be average alongside typical Japanese rice farmers, but I feel crowded toward the steering wheel of the two Yanmars in my sig photo below. A third Yanmar has the original Yanmar-USA seat which feels a lot more spacious.

The Hoye seat is good quality, it just makes the tractor feel cramped. I would keep looking. YMMV.

Isn't that an issue of how the seat is mounted?

On the YM240 I mounted the replacement seat as far back as its brackets allow. For the YM186D I drilled new holes in the brackets to get the seat as far back, and as low, as I could. (so I could lean forward and duck under branches in my orchard.) It still feels small.

The only way to sit farther back would be to modify the tractor's front seat mount (easy) and move the springs farther back (complicated).

I can live with the replacement seat on the YM240. Its just that the second YM186D still has its OEM seat and I immediately noticed it feels more spacious.

This is a Fredricks seat I'm sure since It was New when I purchased the 2000 from Spalding in Ga.. It was setup and attached correct and here's what I did when I bought it to give myself "Alot" more room. I'm 6' and my Knees would almost hit the Dash!! Plenty of room and sits so far back I have to Lean forward to see the Tach.

my seat is just like your Carey. I have a tear in the vynal starting at that grommet drain and going now almost 2"s into the seat.
