You’ll be able to put more bale net behind a taller seat too.
Very tempted to look for something similar myself, so watching this thread for ideas/bargains.

Ya 300 seems reasonable but is there a difference in size of seat for telehandler over tractorSee aboveHow cheap is cheap? Seem to recall good seats around £250-300 at Scotts....

Just need the dimension of the seat. There are varying width seats/seat frames available.

From seeing one or two "cow farmer" Loaders, it's more likely the net IS the seat cushion!!

I’ll check that so might just get a new base as the seat itself is perfect and it be nice to keep it original
Where was this from please? I don’t mind the backrest as it’ll be covered in shite and hidden under bale net in no time
Chafer sprayers were selling them last year, on ebay but also had an advert on here at the time https://thefarmingforum.co.uk/index.php?threads/new-grammer-seat.302009/
I think they take them out of the Combine cabs they use on their self propelled sprayers.
One thing with a lot of air seats is that they are too high for a Merlo, but that is easily overcome by moving the stopper on the suspension, you might need to drill another hole to move it to. Also the base plate will obviously need drilling to suit the fixing holes on the new seat.
Basic sprung seat for merlo is £300 plus vat
What model seat did you buy?
Can't recall now, sorry. It was simply one that was sized that would fit the tractor.
I'll have a look in the morning.
