Jennifer 1,878 #1 Posted May 12, 2019 Could someone please shine some light on these questions! What years did the round pan seat go from holes to solid or vise versa! What did the RJ58 come with? The 1960 suburbans I feel all had solid. 1961 has holes? I asking as I really don't know but I know someone on here would know! Next question! The front wheels of these small tractors! RJ solid wheels up front meaning no holes, but some of my 1960 suburbans have one hole and the others have two holes. I get the two holes are to mount weights! But what years was this dedicated to? Thanks in advance everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oliver2-44 10,691 #2 Posted May 13, 2019 Those questions have fuzzy answers. I have an early 60's suburban with a solid pan seat. I've read several say the changed to the seat with holes starting with the 60's suburban. But as normal the Ponds used up what they had before made the switch. My 60 suburban front wheels has solid front rims, and the rims on my 61 has 2 holes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 18,072 #3 Posted May 13, 2019 General rule of thumb The solid seat pan started in late 59 and ended sometime in 1960 front rims RJ no holes 1960 1 hole 1961 2 holes As stated this is GENERAL rule of thumb as those parts are easily swapped from one to another 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
