Seat cushions do not seem to last very long on my 180 tractor. Years ago, we had good luck but in the past 15 or so, the life span of the cushions is severely lacking. I have purchased replacement seats from various vendors. None of them seem to last very long.
Considering the quality, the prices are outrageous.
The durability of the wood back and the metal backed upholstery have been very similar.
Does anyone have a pattern to share? I want to save big bucks by making my own seat cushions.

Try Speer Cushion Co. I think they have a great product. HTH Tracy Martin

You may try K&M manufacturing for a new seat assembly. 7 years ago, I purchased 2 new steel back seats from them for 2 of my tractors. Both have sit outside ever since and are still holding up great. One tractor's seat, a One-Seventy with 500 loader, is a two fabric color vinyl that is stitched together. I am amazed at how good the stitching has weathered.

The seat I ordered for my One-Seventy is the "AC D17 assy Original" parts number PD17AO-7607
