What is a ROR seat frame worth?
Looks to be in good cond.
No seat pan on it.
But I measured and the flip up seat from an 8N, etc would fit.
Rubber springs look ok - still intact anyway but I suppose they would need replaced at some point.
I never followed them so I don't know.
Thanks

I'm not sure what the frame would bring, but the rubber springs
are close to $100 new. Probably only relevant if you are wanting
to use it and need to replace them.

I rebuilt the one on my 860. New springs, bushings were close to $150.......back in the day, the complete seats were bringing $175+ on the Bay.

There is one on there now for $75 but looks pretty rough.

I just scored a good core on eBay to rebuild for 30 bucks plus shipping. Missing the screw adjustment handle, but I'll make that.

Ummmm, yep. Not a problem.

I have several of them and have rebuilt all.

Some came with tractors that I have. All others were given to me.

Properly rebuilding a R-O-R is time consuming and expensive.

Well,
Once again Kenny glommned onto it before I could sell it elsewhere.
At least I didn't have to ship it.

Yes but if I had to do it over again I would rebuild mine instead of replacing with a new after market seat. The new seats sit way to high and you feel crouched over while driving.
