Seats and hours of comfort

Deconstructed the IH504 seat this weekend to re-cover. Every bolt on the
outside sheared off and is rust welded inside the frame from 35 years of
rain. Easy outs won't work. Abandon this ship.

I priced a new stock seat but that doesn't get us more mowing comfort. A
"universal" tractor seat at Agri-Supply is about the same price but has slide adjustment
and a shock absorber. I presume that has to be a step up technologywise and
comfortwise, assuming it is not cheesy quality. We probably would have to
custom mount with a couple flat pieces of steel and a couple drilled holes.

If I get your blessing on this choice, I will order it and hope for good
quality. It is about $100.

Anyone have any experience with the quality of the Universal seats from Agri-Supply?? I have four other tractors that need new seats and I've had 3 hip operations so I need smooth shock absorbing comfort.

Thanks for your thoughts.
