B3200 w/loader, Woods RC5 brush hog, 4' box blade, tooth bar, B1700 MMM,
Finally got around to installing the suspension seat on the B3200. Ordered it back in November. Thanks to 3.5” of rain, not much else could be done. Easy removal, two pins, and four bolts and the seat is off. Had to remove the safety switches for the seat and PTO. New base required some new holes to line up with the Kubota hardware but after a bit of measuring, on it went. I have spacers between the seat bracket and the suspension seat frame. Without them I would not have been able to get the bolts in to secure it. I may adjust tomorrow with shorter spacers and insert the bolts before booting it to the suspension frame. To get the seat mounted, it required some 1” angle iron mounted to the top plate. Seat adjustment works great to move it in and out.
No issues reaching the pedals and my only gripe is the position of the steering wheel. May run it for a bit and form an opinion later on. All in all around 2 hrs of time invested. Seat travel is 2”. If I don’t like it, I did not make any modifications to the Kubota hardware so pull off the suspension part and put the seat back together.
