has anyone modified their deluxe seat to provide for a little bit of extra leg and belly room to the pedals and steering wheel.
I've looked and it appears that a few new holes drilled in the seat rails would accomplish this task

Re: Deluxe Seat adjustment?
Yes, every time I get a Cub with a Deluxe Seat, I move it back to a comfortable location and drill new holes. I usually move it back one hole and only have to drill 3 new ones.

Its a nice improvement, and it may allow you to bend the shift lever up a little more as a bonus.

Yea, the GMO foods and corn syrups in everything we eat have altered the US male bodies from what they were in the 40s and 50s when these tractors were designed.

Re: Deluxe Seat adjustment?
A link to a post by George Willer (I miss that man) concerning a modification he made to a Lo-Boy shift lever. http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=16665&hilit=shift+lever Unfortunately, the pics are no longer available, however, whoever purchased Squatty (at his auction) may be able to shoot a picture of his modification.
