Removing seat on a 861 Ford Tractor

ejensen · Nov 10, 2017

I would like to remove the seat assembly on my 861 ford tractor.Would like to know how the seats are attached to top of
the transmission. I know there are nuts to remove which will remove the spring seat to seat assembly. Are the protrusions from the transmission top studs? What is best way to remove them?

Yes, they are studs. Just take the nuts off and take the seat off. Best not to remove the studs, as the rear one is also a locating pin for... something to do with the 3-point... I forget exactly what.

As FordFarmer said, but if that pin does come out, just put it
back in without using/moving the hydraulics. No harm. No foul.
Seems like they've come out of all of my recent tractors.
