420-LSE Leather Seat & Steering Wheel Redo

Recommended Posts

Both tractors could use a face lift on the leather seats and steering wheels from prior abuse. I do have a few leads on small local shops that I need to connect with too see if they would be interested in a Winter project. Any how I have been storing a very nice clean 1988 - 89 high back 520 original seat that is in mint condition and decided to install it on my recent second 420. Sure is comfortable and doesn't look too bad in my opinion.

That steering wheel appears to be an off the shelf Grant Industries Classic Series model. Probably faster & easier just to replace it with new.

Years back, the overmolded Kelch lower hub cracked & broke on my C81 - while in use. The steering wheel came up & out in my Son's hands...

I remedied that for good by machining up a 2-pc adapter and installing one of Grant's wheels.
