I have recently become disabled. I need a tractor suspension seat which will accomodate my 350 lbs. I have found mechanical, hydraulic and air suspension seats on the internet but some do not look like they will bolt to my tractor and many do not hold my weight most go to 260 lbs. I have a Massey Ferguson 245.

Amyone have a lead on a manufacturer for a seat with this weight capacity? Any help is greatly appreciated I own and manage 30 acres with some pretty tough terrain, a lot of drainage ditches and wooded area.

Thanks

If your seat has coil springs that you can get to you may want to put some old valve springs inside the coils to improve load capacity. I have seen this done on garden tractors and it kept us from bottoming out on the seat frame.

Louis go to the left side of this page under tractor parts and search for seats.

They have hundreds of different ones to look at maybe one is what you need.
