I have a Z421, just order Trac Seat and installed a week ago. I highly recommend a Trac Seat, so much better ride. Due to your video, I took some shortcuts and had installed in 1 hr 15 mins. Thanks for your video.
I have a Kubota ZG222 which is a much better professional built mower than the Z421 & the seat install was much easier than the way you did it, which was very haphazzard!
Thanks for the video. Very informative. Just had back surgery and my Husqvarna zero turn beat the shit outta me before, let alone after the surgery. Buddy of mine is a landscaper that swears by Ferris mowers. Was considering getting one but your comment at the end sold me on this suspension kit. Lot cheaper and easier than buying a zero turn and then having to talk my brother into buying my old mower. Thanks !!
Glad I could help! This thing isn’t quite as nice as a Ferris but is a MASSIVE improvement over the old ride of the non suspension seat. Hope it works out for ya!!
I put this on my cub cadet. I just want to say that not only is it a game changer but the company is great. They offer spacers for my mower and I ordered 4 instead of 8. They have since shipped me an extra 4 at no cost. Well worth the investment on mowers and a great company.
Awesome video! Thanks for the real time install and not editing out the minor adjustments you had to make. Your video really helps me to understand what to look for when I begin my install of the tracseat on my Bad Boy mower.
Thanks for the video. I added one of these to my z411. What a huge difference it makes. Took me about 3 hours. The hole to route the seat safety switch cable is too small, so I filed it to make it work. It came out great.
I use a "Purple" brand seat cushion on my Kubota mowers (Z421, ZD331LP). It really makes a big difference. I thought about doing this install before but haven't felt the need since trying the cushion.
Also want to thank you allot for video. , I installed it with the slide tracks on top of suspension and wasn't happy, it wasn't allowing seat to work properly and holes didn't align . Know after watching your video I can install it properly. And save my back.😊
Great video instructions. My only confusion was where to put all the washers. My parts kit came with lock washers and flat washers and the included instructions were pretty vague.
Thanks! It’s a Dttach Manufacturing front hitch. I use it for my KartMate but I also move my small trailer around with a regular trailer hitch I can just throw in it real fast. Here’s a link to thier website, just have to find out which fits for your mower. If it’s not on there, they are very helpful to find your measurements and get you set up with what you need. www.dttach.com/d-ttach-hitch-.html
Not sure why you didn’t just spend the extra money and buy the next model with the suspension like I did. If you’re going to spend over 10k like I did for my own home on a lawn mower… what’s the problem spending $600 more at that point?😂
Looks like your seat would bottom out when you would hit bumps, I know by now you probably tightened up the spring because you don’t want to bottom out.
Yeah I had to tighten it some. It’s worn a little since making this video but I don’t mow for anyone else but me now so it’s perfect for just my house!
I’m not sure if THIS specific seat will, but I’m sure they have a seat that does! Check thier website out and if you don’t see it they are very responsive and should help you out. tracseats.com
@@michaelmactavish4445 I love this mower, it has never given me a single problem. Beyond glad with purchasing it. I traded a John Deere riding mower for it 😂😂
@@3rdTACGolfandFitness yeah i was looking at the z421 with a ac cab on it at my dealer wich kubotas are pretty well only one gives alot more options add on
@@michaelmactavish4445 I saw that AC cab in person at GIE last year. It’s freaking awesome. Didn’t get in but it looks cool. Only downfall is I really only see it being practical in big open fields or open yards with no trees to go around.
Great suspension seat I installed it on my Ultima ZT2 cadet $180 dollar with spacers the best investment for my zero turn so far it was super easy to install about one hour really talking my time 🔬🎯🫡💯

Great video!! I just put one of these on my mower. It was a pain but much less a pain than it would have been without this video.
Then I’m glad it helped someone! Thank you for watching. 👊
Just finished installing one on my z421. Your video was a huge help. The only mod I did was to enlarge the hole for the safety switch.
That’s smart! Glad I could help, hope it treats you well and thanks for watching!
I have the same mower for the past 4 years . Love it. I HATE the ride. Just seen your video and going to order my seat suspension.
Still holding strong for me. You won’t regret it!
Installed it. Works great but only problem.Im 6'5 and my head is close to the rollback. The suspension adds like 3 inches.
@@bigmike1556 yeah I had to move my levers up as high as they would go. I don’t usually keep my rollover bar up, my yard is pretty flat

Thanks for the awesome video and install tips! We're glad you like the suspension. Thank you for your business

Glad I could help and I’m even more glad it worked out for you! I’m still loving mine and thanking myself for finally doing it 😂
Thanks for a great install video and first impressions! About to order one now for my Z421.
It’s been a few weeks and I’m still liking it! Hope the install goes smooth for you
Great video instructions. My only confusion was where to put all the washers. My parts kit came with lock washers and flat washers and the included instructions were pretty vague.
I can’t remember what I did as far as washers go. I want to say I just messed with them till it fit. I might not have even used all of them.
That’s why there’s the z422 with suspension…. It’s fuckin awesome!
Very true
I just got a 54 inch commercial kubota with that seat and you can tell the difference right away
Yeah it’s night and day honestly! I’m definitely glad I bought it, just wish I had sooner 😂
Nice video. May add this to my mower setup
I’m loving it so far! I’ll have to do an update after a month or so of use but I’m confident it will hold up just fine!
I have two of them now
Nice! I take it you enjoyed it?!?
Interesting video. I am VERY curious about the reciever bolted to the front of the Kubota. Can you give me details on that please?

I severed my relationship with Amazon so I'm going to try to find this locally at my Gravely dealer.
Kubota also makes one but I dont have any experience with it
Bought this for my Kubota, what a pain in the …… 🤦♂️, but she ride nice now 👍🏻
Honestly it tripped me up a few times installing beucase I was trying to find the best way to do it. But hell yeah, it rides nice now!

@@marks7759 I didn’t spend 10k mine cost me 6500 but I would buy the higher commercial grade now after having mine for 3 years
way to go
congratulations
Thanks brother 👊
@@3rdTACGolfandFitness trac seat thats the company my kubota dealer uses
@@michaelmactavish4445 oh really? I had never heard of them till I bought this thing.
@@3rdTACGolfandFitness yeah its pretty well canada company
👏🏽💯You made it💪🏽
Does your head now hit the rop bar with added height of the seat suspension?
@@user-wo7rz3yn4o nope, it doesn’t add that much height. Only enough to have to adjust the height on the lap bars.
I put this on my toro and I’m noticing that my seat doesn’t seem like the suspension is working at all. Wondering if I missed a step
where did you get that front utility mount bar?
It’s a Dttach Manufacturing front mount hitch. It’s super handy!

Is this same kit supposed to fit an Ariens Ikon X52 ?
I’m not sure, the website has quite a few options to chose from for different machines.
First! Are you gonna do more mowing videos?
Yessir, going to try to get back into UA-cam more now that I have the time.

The instructions are terrible and the video is worse. There are a lot of additional adjustments that have to be made so that it will fit correctly.
