Any word if Messicks has received any yet for us loyal customers who are on the waiting list??

We've shipped about 1/4 of the ordres that we have. They are comming much more slowly than we would like.

Note that these will only fit the newer B and BX series tractors. There where two people so far who ordered them for very old B6200's and the like. It does not fit these tractors, just the ones with the notorious forward sloping seat. If you did this please call and let us know. We can help you find seat that fits.

I got mine put on yesterday and it is a huge difference in the old seat. I have a 2003 B7500 and it fit just fine. Does anybody know what is the cutt-off date of the tractors that it does not fit? I would say that this seat is so nice and cumfy that it would be worth the time to do a little "modification" to make them work on the older models. That is of course once all the people are taken care of that are on the lists first.

In fairness to all the Kubota dealers, my dealer who just notified me that my seat is in, ordered 50 seats, and thus far has received 20..

Yeah, I've got 24 on order since May.
Haven't received any yet, and still being told "anytime now".
I also was told that they would ship in the same order that the orders were received.........I just find it really odd that ALL of these other dealers placed orders within the first few hours of the bulletin as I ordered on the first day.....................hhmmm.

It sure is sweet to have dealers on here letting us know what's going on. I'll wait, what's a few more weeks (months)?

Thanks guys

I picked-up my new replacement seat P/N W13B1013 for my B7610, wow what a difference from the original one. It has a thicker cushion, and you don't have that sliding forward effect.

The dealer charged me $30.50 w/tax.

Got my new BX2350 delivered yesterday and they put on the new seat already. WOW, it's like having a whole different tractor. SO NICE!

On my yard project, I put 12 hours on my BX2230 in 2 days. Used to be that my rear would get sore or even get tingly after 3 hours or so. Not any more! Felt like I was riding on my couch. I love the new seat!

Now about those armrests...

I finally got around to calling my dealer about a new seat last Monday. He had not heard anything about the seat replacment program, and said that he would check into it. He called this morning and said to come and get my new seat. $40.00 plus tax.
