I have back pain, I cannot help but see kubota T2080
has coilover suspenion on their garden tractors.
does any other make or model have something like this?
I really like JD, but it not carved in stone,I am open to any sugestions.
but I also notice the kubota looks like its all plastic.I have not seen one in person yet,
are there any kinds of aftermarket seats perhaps, available.
thanks in advance for ideas.

best wishes kurt

You can go to "johndeere owning/operating" OR "kubota owning/operating" and start a thread about your question, and someone might could tell you.

Members will find you questions better in those places....Hope that helps:)

Welcome to TBN!!

My little Ford 1100 rode like a tank, and I added some springs under the seat, guaged by my weight, to reduce the bounce effect. It made a significant difference, and wasn't too hard to do, but each seat has it's own method of mounting, so explaining it would be a waste of time.
When you have lumpy yards, and are considering a new mower, a 60" cut deck will cut just as much as a 36" cut deck traveling at twice the speed. (small allowance for the overlaps). You might want to consider being able to hit the bumps as half the speed, and what that does to save your back...

Welcome to TBN. Im not familiar with the Kubota lawn tractors but the guys in the Kubota forums might know. If you get a kubota, I wouldnt mind if you painted it green and yellow.:D

Yea me too,..bad back pain, but my 2006 JD-3520 Cab,..standard seat is so beautifully spring loaded with what feels like a foot of air bounce, plus an adjustment for your weight. I have no complaints and once adjusted, I've never hit bottom,..at least hard enough to be a concern. Good luck.
