Recommended Posts

Stewrun

Hi all. New to the forum. What would be your recommendation for an aftermarket replacement seat for my 1989 416-8?

My understanding is that seat from Agri Supply is injection molded and durable ... probably closed cell foam ... that is to say it is not constructed of a paper thin vinyl cover over open cell foam which absorbs water as soon as the thin cover gets compromised.

Here’s the seat I got from A-Z Tractor (a vendor on this site)... bolted right on...

Does anyone sell OEM seats? I have a 312-8 with a decent seat but would like to keep it all original.

The original seats were made by Michigan Seat Co. ( now Milsco), and production ceased years ago for the OEM seats.  The seat mentioned above from A-Z Tractor is about as close as it gets, but the bolt pattern may not be correct.  I don't know if A-Z is modifying the seats to suit.

is a factory / OEM Wheel Horse seat switch compatible with this seat ?

 

my 312-8 uses a switch that operates with the seat mount - but my 416-H appears to have a switch that fits inside the seat

my guess

 

if available - an OEM seat would retail for $300 or more

Works on my 1982 C 105. Don’t know if it works for yours... I would contact AZ tractors...
