I have a 185 (serial 185-6582D) that has an original seat that does not match anything in the AGCO Parts Book. I have the frame/seat mount that is shown on page 168 in the parts book, but the seats shown on page 170 are not what I want. The existing seat I have is a Milsco and it has a date of 11-25-74 and the tractor was delivered to the owner on 31 Jan. of 1975.

Does anyone have an idea of where to find either a seat cushion or entire seat that will fit?

Thanks. Dale

Dale, Did you try the Milsco website? http://www.milsco.com/" rel="nofollow - http://www.milsco.com/ You also might try Michigan Seat Co. which are also sold at Northern Tool. May not be like the original but might work. HTH, Rick

I purchased an exact match seat assembly, frame and cushions from a Serco Loaders supplier. Serco uses the Milsco (Milwaukee Seat Co) seats on their timber loaders, similar to the seats on the 1975 185 with the thick black cushions and grid type pillowing on the seat and back cushion. The Serco Dealer was in Eganville, Ontario, but you should be able to find a Dealer in areas where tree harvesting equipment is sold. It took me a year to track down the seat, but it was worth the hunt.
