Hi Sorry it took me so long to reply . It's warm out now so work has picked up . To remind you of your reply -- "Interesting post here. Well, how much weight are we working with here? I guess I got a few pounds going thru those springs too, and all three of our 4-digit series tractors handle me differently. I remember I had a customer when I was at a Case IH dealership that was well over 500 lbs and he actually bent the brackets on his new JX90U seat suspension....shop foreman told me to rig up soild plates for that fat a** to sit on-LOL:) You may have just worn parts though, causing a lack in actual firmness."

I carry about 265 around with me and I'm about 6' tall . The seat is already on 1-1/2" spacers . Bending the springs has helped but I don't know how long they will keep before bending back . I thought about putting a old coil spring from an early tractor seat under it but there might not be enough room . I have two coil springs in my M and it works pretty good . Thanks ! Take care ...Randy

Hmm, not sure what to tell you there Randy. I guess if things are just looking shot, best replace what you can. I guess I carry some more weight then you(not by much) and our 1755 is the firmest, then my 1650, followed by dad's 1650. If the unit has a pile of hours on it, its bound to have a few hours on the seat. The IH spring may be an idea too...hmm....good luck!
