Under-Inflated Tube Makes Great Seat Cushion TRACTORS Accessories 34-4-31 A slightly inflated rubber inner tube makes a great seat cushion for smoothing out bumps while mowing, says Roger Foster, Tower Hill, Ill.
He came up with the idea for his Country Clipper riding mower equipped with a 60-in. deck. He bought a new 400 by 6 inner tube and simply set it on the mower's bucket-type seat, adding just a small amount of air. The tube measures about 12 in. in diameter and is about 1/2 in. thick when he sits on it.
"It used to feel like you were on an old wooden wagon, but now it rides like an air ride seat," says Foster. "It's something that's simple and easy to do. At first I was going to mount the inner tube inside the seat, but then I thought I'd try this idea first and it worked. I paid $8 for the inner tube."
