Hope the girlfriend is understanding if you need to operate those levers while she is in the seat. I might be tempted to grab . . . never mind. My mind’s usually in the gutter.

Very nice design and well executed. I think you got the best support possible, given the constraints of the location. I can’t see in the pictures, but are the tops of the stiles attached to the cabin wall, or just the wide horizontal rail across the lower part of the back. If you have a torque problem around that rail you might add a couple screws near the top with some fender washers on the outside of the sheet to spread the load.

Extremely cool. If there are two things I like, it’s giant earthmoving tools and woodworking.

@diggerjacks, it’s a TX 63, we just upgraded from a 8060. so if you have some knowledge you will realize what a change this beast is for us, if only for the airco and radio!
@crank49, i intitially though the whole back was backed with steel plate, but there is only a beam at the level of the second slat. so i added a steel plate that is bolted to that beam, so the back is bolted into that plate

Well now, I have to admit, that’s the first passenger seat for a combine I’ve ever seen posted here.
And a darn mighty fine one at that !
Nice work !

But it turned out real nice.

Enough already with the combine seats. Ya seen one ya seen em all ;-)

Beautiful addition to a combine, and I will not even bore you with the bit about steel grain shovels and a
32 Ford truck with a Ruckstill rear axle. Thank you for sharing and bringing back some old memories, some
of which might even be true.

Looks like you did an excellent job of retrofitting! Beautiful work. Nice choice of combines, I build those here in the U.S. Greg

Sweet! A jump seat on a piece of farm equipment . . . a really LARGE piece of farm equipment.
