Almost positive we ordered one through TSC that is almost identical to the original for less than $300. That was 10 years ago at least and still looks new.

I have been looking for one for my 6080 for the last several years. The original seat was a Milsco brand and struck out everywhere I looked. I ended up buying an aftermarket seat that looks and fit good. Pretty happy with it.

I am not a 6060/6080 owner, but perhaps this info could help you in your search. The AGCO Parts Book shows a "Marathon Seat", page 164/6060, which was supplied to AC by the Milwaukee Seat Co (Milsco). The seat comes with a black metal frame, arm rests, and pleated seat cushion/back rest. The Norm Swinford Book, page 130, has a pic of four 6060/6080 2WD/FWA tractors, all open station, with the "Marathon Seat". The AGCO parts Book also shows an "Olympic" Seat (don't have any info on that seat)

Here is a pic of the Milsco Marathon Seat on my 185. I purchased the seat many years ago to replace the original seat supplied with the tractor in 1975. It is an exact match

I contacted Milsco many years ago to get info on the seat, and after much persuasion, they directed me to Serco Loaders, a forestry industry log loader manufacturer. Serco fits their loaders with the Milsco Marathon seat. You can purchase a replacement seat from their network of Dealers. Several members on this Forum have successfully purchased replacement Marathon seats from Serco Dealers

Full Disclosure........I have no affiliation with Serco Loaders or any of their Dealers. I just want to pass on my info to help Forum members access an excellent product

Comment.......I do not understand why AGCO/Seat Suppliers/Forum Sponsors cannot access these seats as there is probably a decent market (unusual Serco would be only source)

I bought a Grammer air ride suspension about $500 and seat from Tractor Supply well worth the $

Several years ago I put a universal skid steer seat from Shoup on mine. It has stood up excellent, it is an open station tractor

I would like to replace the whole seat and suspension.... not just the seat. I think the suspension is different on the 6000 series.

Doug, which seat did you buy at TSC? And did it fit on the 6060 suspension without alteration.

well i look at the seats at tsc. the one i was going to buy was 175.00. so was going to wait. went back 2 days later with the measurements and fond the premium seat with lots of mounting holes. hoping some of the holes will match up. well it fit perfact! just had to turn the back bracket around holes all match up and looks good like the old one. best part was it was on clerance for 50.00 what luck. found a gut who will re apostery the old one.

Glad it worked out for you. The one we bought there was a perfect fit also, no modifications. Had the arm rest also which I am assuming it was a premium seat.
