Torn seat; what do I do?

Craft and upholstery shops sell vinyl repair tape also. Looks like black electrical tape but much stronger. The rolls I use are about 3" wide. I use it to patch vinyl covers on mattresses and seats at work. It stays on a long time. When we get too many tears then we send it out for recovering. I have a split on my Mahindra seat also. I'm going to bring home some of the tape from work to patch it. I also use a towel on the seat. As a last resort you can buy replacement universal seats at your local tractor supply store and adapt to fit your mount bracket.

I like the repair tape idea. Till now have been tipping seat forward. Did get a new seat from Tractor Supply as a gift last year. Turned out the seat back was not high enough. It killed my back. I returned to store.

Sounds like time to buy a new tractor

GOOD IDEA!! I mentioned it to the wife. She indicated all things with a motor and wheels must be kept till the ash tray is full. Here's the rub. I don't have an ashtray on the tractor and I don't smoke. Another sad story.

Cheers

duct tape a soup can in the cup holder and fill it with ash from the grill or burn barrel.

They have colored upholstery tape you can buy to patch those areas if they are too large.

Goop works well, my daughter's Nike Shocks had a shock blowout when someone stepped on the back of the shoe. The Goop has held now for a month.
