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

400 psi is a little low but it should run. IIRC low end is 327, but should be up closer to 475.

how did you verify true TDC? Coat hanger method can be off 10 or so degrees. Need a dial indicator, head off, to verify.

You could also take it to an auto upholstery shop.

That's not too bad a price on an OEM Kubota seat.
Good Luck!
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.
