Has anyone upgraded their seat on a B series (B3200) to a seat with built in arm rests? Is it something that is even an option? It would be nice to have something to stabilize myself on other than the handle on the fender

I have seen a B series with a seat/arms but i am guessing it was just a universal tractor seat that someone installed.

Well done. Looks pretty comfy. Just looked at your profile. 40mi south of KC? Almost to the booming metropolis of Emporia (+/- 70 miles)

My son went to school in Wichita, We've made quite a few drives through that area. Beautiful country, and really nice people.

I upgraded the seat on my B7100. Not a factory option though, required some slight modifications. It's comfortable, and the mouser likes it also!
I hate it when I get on my tractor and see cat paws all over the seat. But she reduces the mice in the barn.

You may want to check out the back of your existing seat for arm rest mounts.
I recently put a new OEM seat on my BX24. The first seat the dealer sold me was one they had in stock. It looked like the original. But when I got it home I noticed two of the mounting holes were missing. I took it back and ordered the correct one. The reason I tell you this is both seats had the mounting holes for the arm rest kits. The first pic shows the plastic plugs on the back. The third pic shows the weld nuts on the inside under the cushion of the old seat. The tractor did not come with arm rests. I plan to order the kit from the dealer, $115. I may check Messicks for price.

Thanks for that tip. My seat has the mounting points for the arm rests (rubber plugs with welded nuts underneath). Just need to get that part number.

I'll try my local Kubota dealer and see if they can hook me up.

I ended up ordering a set of armrests for my B3200 from TractorX.com out of Atlanta. They had the best price and they arrived yesterday afternoon. I'll assemble and install this evening and post a picture or two. Kubota Part# 70000-73930 Price was $85.
