tractor seat base = suspension = happier back!

[Blue_Runner]

Got my trailer leaf springs replaced a couple weeks ago. All went very smoothly. in disassembly of the old leaf springs 90 percent of the u bolts and bolts broke off fairly easily which made it a breeze.

Me and my buddy just got back from a weekend fishing trip. We fished Saturday and Sunday (yesterday). In all we spent over 20 hours on the boat, burned nearly 200 gallons of fuel and covered 250 + miles on the water. Tractor seat base was a real back saver. I'm a little sore all over just from all of the work that went into the trip, but my back feels fine. Had it not been for the seat base I'm pretty certain my back would be completely screwed right now.

Only one negative I encountered. That is since the seat moves up and down I would bump my right knee on the wheel and sometimes shifter. Not hard, but the kind of bump that starts to hurt a little over time. Adjusting the seat helped. At one point I wrapped a towel around my knee. LOL No biggie.

Report & pics will be put up this evening or tomorrow in the Fishing section.
