I really want to upgrade the seat on my L2501 with one that has arm rests. I don't see any provisions for arm rests on the current seat but I have noticed the newer L2502 seem to have provisions for them. If anyone has upgraded the seat on their standard L series tractor with one that has arm rests, let me know what recommendations you have.

I've looked and looked and I can't find any easy direct replacement, a lot of them seem to require some sort of modification and or welding custom brackets. I did see someone mounting a CountyLine brand seat omn theirs but gosh...really didn't like the yellow. It's not a green tractor!

Thanks!

Different tractor but a bunch of us ordered these from Rural King several years ago... fantastic seat at an outstanding price at that time...They may have been mismarked or just on clearance.

Damn, I just did a quick search for those seats...now they are $350 - $400!

I should've bought a dozen of them from Rural King in 2019.

Yeah they are not cheap nowadays. I watched a video of someone adding a seat from a grand L tractor. Looks like too much modification work for a seat haha.

Following along. I would like to upgrade as well. The seat tends to get uncomfortable after a few hours.
