| I am in need of a replacement air ride seat suspension for an 8070. Where would be a good place to start looking for one? What would be a good brand to buy? I am not sure what brand is in there now, but am looking for something easy install. Thanks |

If you want to reuse your original seat one of these will be what you want, you just have to order the right one if you have or don't have a factory swivel. My 8050 did not originally have a swivel seat so i added the swivel kit. I had to drill 4 holes in the seat base, otherwise everything bolted to the cab and to the seat without any issues. http://www.tractorseats.com/p-2887-allis-chalmers-8000-series-air-suspension-for-original-luxury-seat-without-swivel.aspx" rel="nofollow - https://www.tractorseats.com/p-2887-allis-chalmers-8000-series-air-suspension-for-original-luxury-seat-without-swivel.aspx http://www.tractorseats.com/p-2886-allis-chalmers-8000-series-air-suspension-for-original-luxury-seat-with-swivel.aspx" rel="nofollow - https://www.tractorseats.com/p-2886-allis-chalmers-8000-series-air-suspension-for-original-luxury-seat-with-swivel.aspx  ------------- Jimmy 1982 8050 Powershift 1982 6080 1992 R52 Gleaner |

Yes, but you can only go so far until you hit the console. Might only be able to swing 10-15* but still makes for a pretty nice improvement when running the discbine or square baler. ------------- Jimmy 1982 8050 Powershift 1982 6080 1992 R52 Gleaner |

Buddy seat is for a 8000 series Deere, and with a plasma cutter and welder fits our tractors pretty well. If you're on Facebook theres a guy in the Allis Chalmers groups i "stole" the idea from. He sells kits including the seat, the steel piece to weld in, and now i believe he also has the upholstery piece from Fehr that is made specifically to work with the buddy seat. If i were to do it again i would just buy everything from him. ------------- Jimmy 1982 8050 Powershift 1982 6080 1992 R52 Gleaner |
