Where can one find the correct cushions for the deluxe seat on early 185-200 and 210s? I remember a post on here years back about some logging equipment company using the exact same seat and you could get original replacement cushions through that company.

You are talking about the black vinyl cushions with two 1 inch square posts running up the back and the flip up armrests ?? I had cushions made locally by an auto interiors man. He did me a really nice job and was about $300 bucks for the bottom and back cushions. Armrests he couldn't do. He has since retired.

The logging loader supplier, Serco Loaders,  still supplies the seats (Marathon Seat) as far as I know.  They go thru a lot of seats due to the harsh outdoor environment of the service.  Google for a Serco Loader Dealer in your area

A second source for the Marathon Seat has appeared recently, A & W Tractor.  They advertise in the The Old Allis News, and post very good pics of their products.  They sell the replacement cushions, and the arm rests. The "Marathon" seat was available to Allis Chalmers from Milsco (Milwaukee Seat Co) from 1975 onwards.  If your tractor is an early production 185/200/210, the Marathon Seat might not be your match



The "Marathon Seat" is not the same as the seat Dr Allis has described above.  

Hope this helps you in your search for a replacement seat

yeah I took the marathon seat out of my 200 and put the older style in it. Thats the seat I want cushions for (the older style). I hate the suspension they used on the newer seats thats the main reason I changed it over. Did the same to my 185

Yes. I took him pictures from advertising literature and an owners manual, as he had zero to work with. He did an excellent job for me.
