Have you 3400/2800 owners had a problem with the spring suspension seat mechanism freezing up and if so have you come up with any novel ideas to keep it from happening?
The swivel points on my seat continue to freeze up (corroision or rust) on a regular basis rendering the suspension ineffective. I have freed them up and lubed with a variety of lubricants, but have not found a long-term solution. The spring type suspension seat on these tractors is probably not as well-engineered as the one on the more expensive tractors, but is better than nothing and helps smooth out a rough pasture when it is working right.
Any input would be appreciated...
