I have the same design from TS on my MF65
As a retired old geezer I get enjoyment out of your videos! You make us feel good about life and messing with our hobby stuff. Thank you and keep it up!!
I just put the exact same one on my Ford 2600. Just bought my first tractor 2 weeks ago. Super pumped to start cleaning up the land
I purchased the same one at my local Farm & Fleet for my Ford 4400. I love how it has the suspension feature, unlike the OEM one that mounted fast to the transmission housing (bounce, bounce, bounce). Giving me that little bit of extra height does really well.
There is always something to say about the diy'er. I'm glad you show the " mess ups ". It puts the humanity in your videos. Experiences true to life on videos, makes me enjoy your vlog. No fake stuff here!
I have a MF 240 1988 and have mowed with it for 10 years. Love it. Easy on fuel and very powerful for it's size.
I have owned a 1988 MF240 for 10 years and love the way it has foot rest up high to give you something to brace your feet on, taking stress off the lower back. I mow 3 acres every week in the summer. I replaced my seat with the same one and had the same issues when installing, so don't feel bad. Great tractor!
Your honesty is very refreshing. Thanks, great video.
Just got a MF 35 and this is my first upgrade thanks for the link
You seem like a really nice person, very down-to-earth. Thanks for posting
Thanks
Great video, they are $206 now on Amazon inflation lol. I looked at one of these for my Husqvarna lawn tractor, but didn't like being up that high, so I purchased a whole suspension set up and new seat $600. Cheers from Nova Scotia
Nice new seat... I need one that swivels for the backhoe, but this would be great for what you are doing in terms of bush-hogging and bouncing around in the field... Thanks for sharing !
I have a 1988 MF 240 which is very powerful and is easy on fuel. I mow 3 acres each week in the summer. Love the foot rest which is easy on the back when mowing for hours. I replaced my seat with the one like you have. I bought mine at tractor supply for around $100. Thanks.
Hi Josh I’ve been watching you on UA-cam for a few months now over in the UK. I have subscribed now as watching you is so much fun and my daughters have also. We now great each other with a good old “Wooooo” it’s gets a chuckle every time. I have to say your Massey 240 looks a great little tractor. So it’s a hello from the UK.
Thanks Simon!

Hi Josh you have inspired me and my daughters to build a chicken coop which I’m doing right now. Me and my daughters watch you all the time now. Your farm is amazing and love everything you do. We have a small holding in the UK. wooooo. Thanks. Simon and my girls. Heather and Holly. 👍🏻😃
I'm really enjoying your series. I found you researching a possible land purchase in a year or two. I'm thinking more forestry than row crops, but I still get a great deal out of your videos.
Josh, Once again immensely enjoyed your video. You make me laugh, such self-deprecating humor. Thanks!
Sharp looking tractor and way to stay with it on the install!!
I custom mounted that exact same seat in my 1997 Max IV Amphibious 6x6 ATV and it made riding in it so much more comfortable! For the price it was a great cheap improvement!
I have had that seat of my Agricat for a few years.....sure makes a difference on a crawler.
Loved it, Josh! Love them all. I could see myself, doing the exact steps you did...lol! You should have flashed the clip of you tossing the instructions, every time you realized you misstepped! Funny! Thanks for your vids!
Don’t be hard on yourself Josh, things can trip us up with most anything. I’m glad you found a better seat that will be kinder to your lower back. As a nurse, I’m sure your back can take abuse anyway. Glad you found it and got it installed. 👍
First time I am watching your video and liked it!
Great info and natural !
Thank you
You have a good point, just wanted to give you a little grief. I really enjoy your videos and the life lessons and comments you bring to your videos is totally rad!! You rock Josh! Keep up the great work!
Thanks John lol...might get the little impact out today on the ram truck carrier bearing!
Put the same type of seat on my fergie 135 28 years ago, the original one had rotted away. What a difference, change out the seat on your 135 as well
Great video Josh I bought one of those off of EBay for like $80 looks real nice I haven’t put mine on yet but will soon and I think I’ll buy another for my little Satoh as well
Thanks for the info. I just bought one from TS to put on my Kubota L295
Good video….looks like all my project processes. I spent an hour trying to free up what I thought was a locked up shredder gear box yesterday…turned out it was sitting on a mound and all it needed was to be left alone.
This video helps me out because It’s time to replace the seat on my 1983 MF 250. I think this would work great for me.
I put the same seat on a Ford NAA, I hated that tractor until I put it on. It made it a lot nicer tractor to use.
Seems to be a great addition to the tractor for sure!
That's one thing I like about your videos Josh, you show us all the possible ways to attempt to do something b4 showing us how to actually do it right. ;o)
Sweet ride!!! Looks Great!!
Get yourself a cordless impact driver with a couple 1/4 to !/2 and 1/4 to 3/8 socket adapters. You'll love it.
Loved your video. It seems like every time I try some simple bolt on job it turns into a big ordeal.
Thanks man, I was looking for the same thing for the ol 135
Thanks for uploading another good video.
It just shows that even "simple" jobs sometimes can take a bit longer than you originally think.
I have just bought myself an old Masey Ferguson tractor, and I think I will also be upgrading the seat, as I do have a bad back to start with!
I expect to have the tractor delivered sometime this week as it is down in Sydney and I am in a rural area 3.5 hours West of Sydney over the Blue Mountains here in New South Wales,(Australia).
It will be interesting to see how much the towing company charges me for the pickup and delivery of my tractor.
great video. you showed us all the issues that we would have gone through too!!
Excellent, humility is very important : )
Good video and it's very functionable.
Nice looking old tractor
You are awesome SRF!!!
What do you use to de-grease your tractor under the seat area?
good you can still laugh at ya self . and looks sooooo comfy too
Like a broken drum you just cant beat it. Heck of a deal.
thats what my kubota dealer and princess auto sells
Good job Josh..... very thoughtful......your wife can operate tool.....
I perfected driving a manual transmission on an old international tractor.. Good times.
Chuck Hixson it's pretty simple
Josh I really like your channel I find it very interesting i’am not a farmer but still enjoy your work i’am 73 years old and have cancer and I get a lot of laughs when I watch.but some people are just dumber than dirt with some comments that they make I don’t know how they get through the day without shooting them selfs in the head keep up the good work
Lol. Love it! Glad you said it!
Attach boy Josh. Happy wife Happy life. I've seen these seats at our local Tractor SuppyCo. Think I'll be getting one for my J.D. it's gotta help my poor ole back. Thanks buddy.
I think we'll be trying these on 2 Zetors. Thanks for the video.
Great classy video Josh! Not even one F- bomb or any other "modern" language. Including Wife, ALWAYS a smart move! God bless.
Good Video , I got a n 87 M 250 that needs a seat, this looks good!!
Your right about that nothin ever goes right when you think everything will go right!
Awesome a new video. Thanks.
Love it!! New video day!!
Good job Josh
Good videos keep up the good work
So funny you kept saying "Pretty Simple". Then darn it lets try it again. Another good job.
Yep sometimes the most simple task can get ya in the boo boo......nothing is ever simple that's for sure!
All my simple projects take longer that they were planned and always cost more because I need something from the store to finish them. All part of the fun.
Beautiful tractor
Thats a really nice tractor
Nice. Don't worry, been in too many predicaments like that, lol. And you maintained your cool, at least on camera. I know I would have had some choice words to say. Thanks for sharing. Really good idea, nothing worse than a sore arse and back.
Looks comfy! Hope yawl doin well and Ya should do a vidja on the Blue Chevy.. Line it up next to the ole Ford. Em would b the "Mascots of ya channel lol
Nice video, with some comic relief :-)
love that tractor i hope i can find one in missouri
B. U. T. FULL tractor. Nice upgrade! Why aren't these seats "all the rage" in our rOuGh RiDiNg road-pickup-trucks? You're tractor has it. Big Rigs have it... Your description of the "new ride posistion" checks all the right boxes :O) Thank you for the video (even though I'm late to the party). Cheers from So.Calif, 3rd House On the Right.
you know what's super funny....I let my dad use this tractor...took it over to his house and he hated the seat!! He made me give him back the original horrible seat and he put it back on....can't see anything, more dangerous and harder on your back...but he didn't like it lol
When first watching this I was mumbling "Skip the trivia," but you have some good stuff. All my projects, no matter how simple, become a pain in the @$$. I'm happy your walked us thru the REALITY of this. Also: While cranking down some bolts you reminded us that tractors have a lot of vibration. I think your unstated point was "therefore make sure these are tight or these bolts will fall out."
Hi.... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍
Nice seat! That will help on rough terrain.
On the MF135, is it diesel? What year?
Thanks for sharing!
I put a that new seat on my MF245 . It cracked all over when it got below freezing. It was strong enough just the plastic cracked when it was cold..
Hey! At least the weathers nice! Haha
Josh thanks for the laugh. Spending 8hrs on JD 5065 or 5045 can be tough and it has a bouncy seat. At least the ones I've been using.
Stick to the vlog..I'll show ya the back saving miracle I found for my tractor seat!! Stops butt sweat and saves your back from being so stiff after a long day on the tractor seat! here is a link for ya: amzn.to/2GGcu9X
When you look at it you wont think it's worth the money...but omg it sure is! I have one on my tractor and in my office chair...which I'm in about 5-8 hours per day!
I put one like that on mine agree great value
Nothing is ever as easy as it looks.
Just bought a new bucket seat pan, cushions, and seat bracket for my 1998 Massey Ferguson 231 tractor. All Sparex parts. I wanted it original as possible. $255!
Josh
I hear you On nothing ever goes right. I literally have to do everything twice sometimes three times.
Gut twin....
As always, good video!! FYI, the back of the seat is crooked. The left mounting bolts didn't slide all the way down in the mounting slots.
My right sides much shorter than my left side I like to get my lean on
Like a OG farmer with that gangsta lean. lol
Wow! You have a shifter knob... I'm probably due for a bit of a restoration.... I don't have as many leaks as the last time when my tractor caught on fire from a batter/diesel fire, but I don't think it should be leaking as much as it does.
I’m going to be installing a new rotating seat on my ‘71 Allis 190xt. Being 58 years old and spending 8-14 hours in a day in that tractor makes me a sore old man. My experience as a welder and fabricator will come in handy. Strong back… weak mind
Northern Tool has a suspension seat for about $100. I put one on my tractor and it works absolutely fine.
I've been doing nothing but hiccuping since hurricane Irma!
You got off easy!😂😎
You can weld a piece of metal to bolt that plate too some kind of bracket to mount it to
Reminds me of me, the simplest task turns into a major ordeal :)
I've got a Massey Ferguson 245. My grandfather had a 240 like you have. Did you restore the MF 240 yourself? My 245 is in very good shape mechanically but I want to paint it and do a few other things to restore it to it's former glory.
Thanks still sick in bed. Keep them coming
Recently installed mine but can't stop seat from sliding back & forth ( it won't lock in ) any suggestions?
I picked up on brand new seat for $3 with shipping because the pu material had a small tear in the top its basically the bottom of your new seat with out the suspension
It was looking like myself doing a easy job HAHAHAHA so funny.
Woooooo!🇺🇸🚜
Good job
I love the mf tractors. The 240 has the same tractor lay out with the gears and lights as the 245
Hows the seat worked out after several months of use ?
Have you learned to put a white towel over the seat if you have to get off of it for a few minutes on a hot sunny day ? Black's not the best color for a seat.
Lol, I thought damn that backrest is upside down!
Good
Got the same seat for my '68 Sears Suburban $80 from TSC, to replace a plastic camouflage one that was 35. on clearance from northern hydraulics, I guess the camouflage wasn't sufficient to sneak upon any wildlife.
Anyway you could put a roll bar on it for safety?
Yep....been on the lookout for a used one
I have days where everything just works against me😁 Does that seat feel like it will support you side to side if driving on a hill side? I mow mountainous property and need more support. Thanks for the video.
yeppers...its' got supports on the waist line...much better than the original in my opinion...but you'll have to judge it for yourself
Heh. Did I hear you bottom out on the first sit?
Hey, Josh - what is that second flag you have under Old Glory? Is it a Gadsden? I couldn't quite make it out on the last video.
Hi I have a problem with front wheels terning one darrection what could be the problem it's MF 290
What are you gonna do with the $100 truck? I would.like to see you fix it up. With love and God blees Wade
More repairs to come this spring and summer...weather has been horrible here...shop flooded and things are just a mess
Great!
Josh I bought a Massey 245 a couple weeks ago 3 cylinder Perkins diesel anyway I myself have looked at that very seat. I am in the middle of restoring my tractor I have to buy new fenders for it and a radiator. My tractor has the flat top fenders but I am considering putting the round fenders on it like your 240 it is the cheaper way to go just not sure if it's the right way to go for my 245. What do you think ???
I'd go back with the original style if it were me
Thank you Josh I will take your word on that an order the original flat top fenders...
Looks like the way I do projects...
Justabout every job I do goes the same as this one did for you. Put it together then take it apart and start again.
Ron Larimer practice makes perfect! Lol
