I thought this was the original seat? This pic is of a '98 MF 231.

Did you ever find a seat ? I need one also. I do have a set of stock rims with new tires on them. These came on the tractor new and were replaced by a larger rim and tire. Would you still be in the market for these ?

That is an aftermarket seat.

I would like to see pictures and what year MF231 did they come off of? Thanks.

No, I haven't found an original seat yet. There's plenty of aftermarket ones out there but you just can't find any used originals. I did barely miss one on craigslist a while back though.

Travis, did you find a new original seat for your 231 Massey Ferguson. I am looking for one, too. I'd be curious what they cost.

I want to say THANK YOU to zeke65. We met today and I got the seat from him after 8 years of searching. Very nice people! The seat bolted right up with zero problems. It's so much better for me than the other seat. Thanks again man.
