OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping For Sale Ride-on Seats

Hi Norm

If the back was lowered to its lowest it might look fine.
It shows what can be made and sold for the price.

Thanks for trying to help out members here. Appreciated.

Jack as you can see there is a lot more involved in the manufacture of these seats compared to the standard ride on ones. I'm sure with a little tinkering the back could be lowered right down and then they would look ok I think. I might get one and try it. I just hate those armchairs plonked on a mower

I contacted this seller and asked what the postage by road would be ,his reply was $33.00 +$10.00 handing /so actually 43.00 to post from Brisbane to Townsville What a rip off, the price of the seat was 75.00 ,so he was told to get on his bike.
he had them listed on gumtree, then he had another listing on ebay with postage at 17.00 odds (not the tractor style seat )
I bought a seat for the colt else where

I think you need to be a little careful with those tractor seats, or anything that is a big higher. It will change the center of gravity. The Greenfields are one of the better ones for a low center of gravity. For my property it is just low enough with one part of a slope. If you have a flat block, then go for it, but I have to pass on it. It would probably look really out of place on my old TE20, too!

Plenty of new aftermarket TE20 out there fairly reasonable price as well. I see the seller of the seats we have been discussing has them listed on ebay at the moment at $25 postage and no mention of a handling charge

I bought one of these BareCo seat to put on my Murray restoration project.
Looks alright to me, maybe some of the purists won't like them.

G'day GeoffP

Thant link might be quite useful to members.
Those seats look like OEM seats and certainly 'look the part'.
And they've got a proper drain hole for water!

Thanks for the information.
