Hey Guys, was just at Lowe's and they had real nice tractor seats on clearance, reg. price $44.95 marked down to $24.95. Bought the 2 they had. Be sure to ask for the senior or veterans discount also, another 10%. They are a fairly universal fit and list Wheelhorse. :thumbs:

Nice seats with a plastic back and bottom with maybe 8 holes for different bolt patterns? Is that the kind? That I just bought at Northern for like $50.00. Is that the kind. :thumbs:

OK different kind, mine is comfy but it's base is plastic, Good enough for the GT-1848. Lowes right? Road trip.

Well Irv thank you for the head's up. So needless to say I was out the door before the computer was able to shut down. Unfortunately my local Lowes store does not carry the replacement seats so I am out of luck on that one. :thumbs:

Good luck to the rest of you....sounds like a pretty good deal!

The seat that Lowes sells is the best one. It is made by Arnold and it has a metal pan with two drain holes in the seat for water to drain. I can tell you that this is by far the best seat I have found however up here in the northeast at lowes they are a seasonal item and they do not even show them anywhere on they're website. I basically had to make a roadtrip after calling each Lowes to find them. Late last fall I found two about 1 hour away and i went to buy them. They are the best and they look good too.

These seats ought to be the ones made by Michigan Seat Co. They were the OEM manufacturers to WH. The only problem you may run into is the bolt /hole pattern. Wheel Horse had their own pattern so you may have to modify your seat a bit so that the seat bolts line up with the holes. If you can't get a cheap seat at Lowe's then just check on line . There are some similar price deals going on that Lowe's has to offer and the seat comes to your front door. :thumbs:

I went by my local store. They didn't have the seats but did have this on sale for $49:

MTD

FastAttach Manual Sleeve Hitch

Item #: 89076 Model: OEM-190-608

$197.31

Any one modified one to fit their old Wheelhorse? I need some kind of hitch on my one WH that has no hitch.

Those Lowes (Arnold made) seats have the correct holes.

PS- Chris, Thanks for posting my old C175, it did come out nice.

Hey Duke I talked with Bill Jenkins here about a week or so, anyway he told me that he has found the guy that had redone the 953-1054 seats for him and he will have them available possibly soon. Thought you might want to know that. Burly

So.....I wasn't gonna buy the hitch, but for $49..... I had looked last week and I didn't see the seat. I did need a seat for my one Wheel Horse. Did a little job this morning and decided to check back on the hitch. I got the sales lady to let me open the box to see exactly how the hitch is made. I can make it work on one of my tractors and told the lady I would take the one hitch. She asked if I had looked at the other sales items in lawn and garden......there was the seat. I get to checkout. The lady scans the seat - $24.99. She scans the hitch - $15.68 sleeve hitch. She looks at the box - $49 on three sides! She asks another lady to check her computer with the sleeve hitch code. Her computer says $15.68 also.

They had two hitches now they have none.... :banana:

Well with all the talk about the seats and me having to go to lowes today i took a quick look and found that they had 2 left. I ended up getting them for 20.00 each by using a lowes card and getting a veterans discount. Didn't see any hitches though, might need to check out the stores around us. These look to be a very nice seat an although not as tall as the high back on my 520H it will do until i can get it recovered this spring.

Thanks for the heads up on the seats. this forum just saved me another 50$$ :thumbs:

Went to lowe's today looking for these cheap seats. I got the last one they had, the box was torn and taped together but was happy with what was inside. Now the hard decision is "which tractor do I want to put it on??"
