If you own a New Holland TC or Case D or DX Tractor, you'll understand this video. When I worked at a New Holland dealership, I loved selling their TC Boomer tractors but there was one thing I hated about them.. They had a major design flaw that I'm fixing on my TC40 in this video. They had a pond built right into the seat.

This seemed like an easy thing to fix in my mind. GET A DIFFERENT SEAT! The vinyl seat that was on all of these tractors had a little trough in it, that held about a pint of water. When it rained, the tractors on our lot would hold the rainwater, and when you sat down on it, you had a wet butt. ALL. DAY. LONG. They folded forward so you could dump the water out and after a few soggy bottom days you'd get trained to do that. Once in a while, I'd forget and...splash! Wet butt again.

Every time I encountered a New Holland product manager or big dog from the company I'd tell them about it. They'd ask what we thought of their compact tractors, which we all knew were ahead of their time, and a leader in the industry. I'd say, "They're miles ahead of the competition, except for the pond in the seat." I'd get a blank look. It was obvious that none of them had ever had the pleasure of slogging around with moist underwear for an entire day. They never fixed it.

Today I'm putting this brand new replacement seat on my tractor: https://asktractormike.com/product/re.... It's a U.S.A. built deluxe seat and it has A DRAIN HOLE!!! No more wet butt after a rain shower. I've also added these armrests: https://asktractormike.com/product/ar.... I'm so happy!

If your tractor has a seat issue, I offer a wide variety of seats on my website here: https://asktractormike.com/tractor-se.... I've separated them by brand and model so you can find the EXACT one for your tractor model. Most of the time they fit with only minor modification. Make sure you read the notes carefully, though. It's hard to offer a seat that fits everything, so there are multiple models and some require blacksmith work to get mounted.

If you don't see what you need, shoot us and e-mail at: [email protected] and we'll see if we can't come up with one. We offer seats for Deere, Kubota, Massey Ferguson, Mahindra, Case-IH, AGCO-Allis, Deutz, Case...you get the picture. We even have them for oddball brands like Satoh and Iseki. The only brand we don't offer is Kioti and I'm looking for a supplier for them. For whatever reason, they offer a unique seat.

The vinyl on the old seat on my TC40 was cracked and starting to get nasty, it was nice to get it replaced before I was sitting on bare metal. The armrests are a nice touch as well. I wish I had done this years ago. If your seat is going south and not as comfortable as it once was, hop over on my website and see about a replacement. We really want you to ride in comfort.
