After sitting in my busted S55 seat all sunday I figure it may be time to get with the times and fix the suspension. Is that an easy process? No welding or glue of rubber or anything? I see that the Korves sell the parts, I will buy from them but just wonder when I get the box will it be a nice simple slide in and bolt or some grief?

When's the last time anyone saw a "nice simple slide in and bolt" repair on a 50 year old tractor? Actually, you can figure out how hard it will be by looking at your existing seat. The main problem with suspension seats is the bolts at the pivot points of the suspension mechanism tend to loosen up and then "work" the framework they are bolted to, resulting in holes that are too large for the new hardware. The normal fix is to drill out the mounting points to an even size, and make bushings to get everything snug again. Or weld up the holes and redrill them. All of which seems to be more fun for some people than for others.
