BX2230 seat

[Toyboy]

Well I've spent about 10 hours on my '04 (new to me in Feb) and am beginning to dislike the seat. Seems to have a slight forward cant and I'm sliding around on it. Had to wear the seat belt which I don't like, to stay on it on slight slopes. I'll either have to get some butt stick-em or a new seat.

Is this a common problem w/BX2230 or is it just me & my posterior

If I were to change it out what would the recommendations be

That seat needs to go. My brother's BX1850 had the same one, always felt like you were going fall out of it. It would make my back start hurting because I was always pushing back with my feet to stay in it.

The seat on my BX24 is the replacement Kubota came up for it, and it is very nice. It was a direct bolt on replacement on the 1850, so I have to assume it would fit your tractor.

Messicks had a bunch awhile back for 99.00, but I don't know if they still have any. It was a sweet deal, as they are over 200 normally. Shoot them an email and see if they have any left. Hope this helps.

Edit: You might want to post Kubota specific inquiries in the Kubota board, you'll get more first hand knowledge over there. I just noticed this thread, and it's several days old.

My brother bought his maybe 2-3 months ago, and they had a few left. I think the rush on them is over, so they just may have one. Good luck.

Toyboy, What seat did you purchase? I just spent 1 hour on my BX25 mowing and it was very uncomfortable. Thanks

He purchased the seat you have on your 25. The older seats left alot to be desired.

You mean they come worse than mine? OYE!

Oh, you've got good! How many hours do you have on the 25? Maybe the seat will break in a little better.
