JCM 9,193 #1 Posted September 9, 2021 When I bought the 420 it had the 520 type armrest on it. Don't know what happened to the originals. I had a spare set of 520 armrest so the search started to locate someone who would be willing to recover those with leather. Picked them up this afternoon on my way home from work and I feel they did a great job considering the task at hand. Now if I can get a second mortgage I may have the seat done over the Winter. I will be looking for opinions from those that will be here this weekend at the Meet to vote on leaving the seat original or having that redone to match the armrests. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelhorseBob 1,549 #2 Posted September 9, 2021 Very nice! Hard to believe they used actual cow hide on these given the life most garden tractors live. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 21,345 #4 Posted September 9, 2021 They look nice! I think Craig’s 420 seat is under the knife right now so he would know what a seat re-do will set you back. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes if you mean onion powder, garlic powder, season salt, black pepper and Worcestershire sauce, then yes I pamper cows more....

WheelhorseBob 1,549 #11 Posted September 9, 2021 Sorry I’ll be at the pease air show with family. I work at Lonza on the trade port and we have had that day planned well in advance. Keep your eyes to the sky’s, you will surely hear and see the Air Force Thunderbirds and F22 Demo squad. Hope to meet you good folks next year!! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
