Back on a horse 55 #5 Posted December 15, 2019 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MAWHguy2019 21 #7 Posted December 23, 2019 Does anyone sell OEM seats? I have a 312-8 with a decent seat but would like to keep it all original. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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.
