My new Kubota with Air ride seat

   / My new Kubota with Air ride seat #21  
OK, Itook more pics with camera instead of my phone so you will see better.

this is exactly what i need and i am with you on why in the world Kubota
doesn't offer an air ride seat on the grand L series tractors. I also have a
new 5740 and it rides stiff compared to my air ride seat in my j.d. and my
backhoe. You said it lowered the actual seat height 1 to 2 inches ? and you
used a seat pan from a m model and bolted it to the oem seat pan. My
question is how can this lower the seat height ? I sure would like more pictures
and details on this seat. I am very interested .

Impressive! I've always wanted one on my L5030, the height thing was the problem, I bash my head on the roof at 5'10" and assumed an air seat would be taller.

How can i contact you ddt and get more information on the air ride seat. I
just bought a new Kubota 5740 and it rides so stiff it hurts. I have a jd 7210
with air ride and i guess it has spoiled me. my email = ldgd46@yahoo.com.

Hi all, dtrumpp@eaglecom.net will get me quicker.

; the fore aft isilater is a little over 1" tall but the seat has a thinner bottom than OEM and softer to. I am 6' tall and have not hit my head doubt I ever will. This seat has a arrow to adjust the seat height, this about mid rise of the seat so there is several inches of up and down movement.
davygp38: Thanks I really like this cab more than the L5030 tractor I had.

DDT that's a nice seat you installed there. Now that I have a 5740 I can see why you needed it. The stock seat in the 5740's are rock hard. Now that you've had you seat for awhile are you happy with it? Do yours swivel ? Is the seat a heated seat? Do it bottom out when hitting a bump?
Looks like I'm going to take evasive action on my stock seat soon but doing some research right now. Thanks

I have run a lot of different equipment, the air ride seat is great!
Just don't pump it up to high and hit a bump hard, it will bounce you right into the top ( don't ask ).

Even with your seat belt on...?

What about the swivel ? Is there away to attach the old swivel mech. or a swivel plate ? Just curious

It don't appear that DDT has the swivel attachment on his. May be because of the height it might have added to the seat. I'm basically about to do the same as DDT but going with the heated seat, swivel attachment.... and a few more options. Oh the swivel attachment cost an extra $139.

...and a few more options...

What else do they offer, or are these just another set of ingenius ideas that we will see "shortly".
