I have a 11 year old B3200. The seat is developing a few cracks. I was wanting to replace it but the dealer price seems a little steep. ($375) This is just the simple tilt forward seat, not any kind of air ride. Does anyone know of a source for a same type or even better bolt on seat?

If you do not find some suitable replacement, you could just put a cover on it.

You have a variety of choices in color and material; all for $40. I bought an endura seatcover for my LX to prevent punctures and cracks. It fits well, and it is comfortable. YMMV

I was thinking the same thing. I had to get a replacement seat for my L3010 two years ago and it was close to $700. I was joking with the parts tech at Messicsk and said I'm probably the only fool spending this kind of money for a seat. He looked it up and they sold 80+ of them in the last two years, which made me feel better, ha.
If you need something like that again, you're not far away from Gibble Auto Upholstery just South of Manheim. When I worked we had them do our truck and equipment seats. They refurbed forklift seats for a fraction of that. They replaced a panel in the leather seat of my company Tahoe, cloth and vinyl truck and equipment seats.
Anybody recall the B/BX seat replacement campaign from about 2008/2009?
The awful forward sloping seat was replaced by Kubota with a much better seat for $27 exchange
Awhile later,at the dealer,I noticed the same seat for sale for $100!
Needless to say,I bought one.
Of course my B seat is still perfect!
