Hi guys, looking for a flat back for a late JD B....I've never seen one in person but would like to find one if possible! thanks
 
Just find one off older B. It will bolt up, and im not for sure but I doubt the part number on a flatback would be different from early styled to late styled. I think they only made one flatback to fit all from early to late styled.
 
They will all bolt up, but I"m pretty sure there is something different about the PTO.

If you aren"t using the PTO or at least aren"t putting any power thru it, you should be fine.
 
The unstyled B and styled B thru 1947 used the same "flat back" . In 1948 they used a seat with a battery box which required a different "flat back" to support the battery box. So it depends how "late" your B is. I do have a flat back for the 1947 and older B's . If I can help give me a call @ 573 535 8952. Tom.
 
Seems like someone was making them out of aluminum for the late B's with the battery box mounts.. K&K or Detwilers?
 
1947 tractors use a differant flat back they had the batery under the seat flat back for 47 and later Bs needs to have a place to mount the battery box this started with serial #201000 mid 47 prod
