Running a John Deere® 8450, 8650 or 8850 usually means you spend a lot of time twisted around watching a ripper, cultivator or air seeder. This Grammer® 731 brown matrix fabric swivel tractor seat with MSG85 mechanical suspension turns that big 4WD cab into a plug and play comfort zone so the machine takes more of the beating than your neck and lower back. You get the same 17.50 inch tall backrest, 20.50 inch wide by 4.50 inch thick cushion, adjustable lumbar support, reclining backrest and foldable armrests, plus an integrated swivel that lets you turn toward your work instead of fighting a fixed seat every time you look behind the tractor. The brown matrix fabric is tough enough for real field clothes and long seasons and still looks right in an older John Deere® cab that is out there paying the bills.
Below the cushions, the Grammer® MSG85 mechanical suspension with its long stroke, adjustable weight range and fore and aft travel is set up to soak up both sharp hits and steady vibration. Suspension stroke of about 100 millimeters, several inches of usable travel, weight adjustment for roughly 110 to 285 pound operators, height adjustment and slide rails that move in 0.50 inch increments give you plenty of room to dial in the ride and legroom. An operator presence switch ties into the safety system, and the integrated swivel and adapter hardware are set up for these 8450, 8650 and 8850 tractors so this kit installs as a clean plug and play package instead of a homemade bracket pile. You bolt it down, hook it up and head back to the field with a smoother, easier ride out of the John Deere® four wheel drive that is already paid for.
