It covers unboxing, comparing mounting rails to the Kubota base plate, fabricating a workaround with spacers and drilled holes to clear conflicting bolts, and the finished install after roughly three hours of work. Useful for owners considering a budget seat replacement and wanting to see real fitment issues, not just a clean bolt-in.
Posted by the Apache Ranch channel, an owner sharing a real DIY repair on their own tractor rather than a professional or dealer install.
Not fully out of the box. The rails conflict with the bolts holding the Kubota plate to the floor, requiring spacers, a long bolt, and drilled holes to clear the conflict.
About three hours from start to finish, including figuring out the rail and bolt conflict and drilling new holes to fit the mounting plate.
Take out four bolts, front and back. The old seat was very heavy, around seventy pounds, and awkward to lift out between the steering column and surrounding parts.
