Universal Tractor Seat, Lawn Mower Seat with Armrests Replacement, Forklift Seats for Excavator Backhoe Dozer Skid Loader, 16.9x15.75in Skid Seat (Color : Black, Size : 16.9x15.75in)

What It Is

This is a universal replacement seat with armrests, designed for lawn tractors, zero-turn mowers, forklifts, excavators, backhoes, dozers, and skid loaders. It’s a 16.9 x 15.75-inch skid seat in black, intended to replace worn or broken seats on a wide range of off-road equipment.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Measure your mounting hole pattern – The seat pan has slots that fit most standard bolt patterns (typically 6.5–8.5 inches front-to-back and 6–8 inches side-to-side). Measure your existing seat base before ordering.
• Check seat height and clearance – This seat is 16.9 inches wide and 15.75 inches deep. Ensure your mower or vehicle has enough room for the armrests to fold or clear the steering wheel, fenders, or ROPS.
• Verify seat pan type – It uses a flat, universal pan with slotted mounting holes. If your machine has a specific OEM bracket (e.g., Deere, Kubota, Husqvarna), you may need an adapter plate or drilling.
• Safety switch wiring – This seat does not include a seat switch or harness. If your machine requires a seat safety switch (common on riding mowers), you’ll need to transfer your old switch or buy a separate kit.

Key Things to Know

• Quality is budget-level – At ~$98, expect medium-density foam and vinyl covering. Not commercial-grade; fine for occasional or light use.
• Armrests are fixed-width – They don’t adjust in or out. Check that they won’t interfere with your controls or door if used in a cab.
• Installation is straightforward – Mounting slots allow adjustment. You’ll need basic hand tools (wrenches, drill if re-drilling holes). No wiring included.
• Common complaint: seat is firm – Some users report the foam is stiff initially. It may soften over time, but if you need plush comfort for long hours, consider a higher-end model.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a cheap, universal replacement seat for a tractor, mower, or skid loader and don’t require a factory-fit safety switch or plush ride. It’s best for occasional use or restoring older equipment where budget is the priority. Skip it if you need a specific OEM match, adjustable armrests, or long-hour comfort.
