- Hey Guys, This is an important follow up to my Trac Seats suspension kit installation video: • Trac Seats Suspension ... This correction to the Trac Seats suspension installation on my Cub Cadet is of vital importance for full range of motion. So you get that air ride suspension feeling! Oh so nice!
I messed up on the original suspension kit installation video and a kind viewer @chinov9445 and Trac Seats, let me know the issue.
Thank you @chinov9445
Man! I’m glad they told me! It really is like an air ride seat now. It was good before but it was bottoming out. Now it is awesome.
So if you don’t have sliding rails under your seat that you can mount your Trac Seats suspension to, you will need this information. This will enable the full range of motion from the Trac Seats suspension kit and give you a most wonderful ride. No more painful jolts while riding your mower across rough terrain.
I love this Mod to my Cub Cadet ZT1 zero turn. Finally no more Cub Cadet back pain!
Trac Seats has suspension kits for other brands as well. Check them out.
I am building a pretty extensive playlist of Cub Cadet zero turn mower topics.

Great video thanks for the up close look. Im about to install this on a Toro zx6000 without the rails as well. I get why the need for the bottom spacers but why the top? Could you not bolt the trac seat directly to your seat? Trying to avoid the extra height as Im 6’1” and have the tiller bars already at max height without the suspension. Again, great detailed video so thanks! Really helpful
*****just watched your other video, makes sense now*****
Yeah, it needs room for the springs. I made the mistake of not using them at first and definitely needed the spacers. I like the extra height as I am 6’3” but the bars are a little tight now. Thanks for the feedback!
Where did you get the springs? I think mine just like the plate sits on like those plastic impact dampers. I bet the springs sitting on them dampers make a big difference
I got them on Amazon here is a link amzn.to/3HZSIbW it is an affiliate link. They did make a big difference but the Trac Seats suspension kit really did wonders. I road the springs for a year though.
So the 1-inch suspension gives you enough cushion, or are the spacers made of a urethane or something that's also compliant to soften the ride? Trying to decide between this and the whole seat that gives 3 in of suspension
It is a fantastic ride after I was told to put spacers under the suspension AND the under the seat. It has done wonders for my back. I haven’t tried the whole seat so unfortunately I cannot speak to which is better but I can say I am very happy with the suspension kit.
@@hackthehoneydolist
thank you for the reply! I also have a bad back. $180 vs $700 for the whole seat..... Probably going to try this. Thank you for the video!
@@TigerRagFishingTeam YW! I hope it helps your back. Let us know how you like it.
Cool brotha now the suspension seat won’t bottom out I installed the trac seat 💺 on my Ultima ZT2 i didn’t need the spacers because of my sliding rail it’s already elevated about 1 inch now you’re really gonna enjoy the suspension💺 enjoy the ride while mowing 🫡🎯
Yeah, you were right. It is a nice ride now with the Trac Seat suspension! Thanks again and enjoy your weekend! 🫡
Hello, where did you get the seat switch wire extension? I am trying to keep my wiring uniform if I can help it. Thank you
Well, honestly I disabled mine and did not hook it back up. I did not want to show that on the video as it is not recommended. I was thinking of maybe a trailer light kit would work with some butt splice connectors and heat shrink tubing. You can get all at either Amazon or Harbor Freight. I don’t think Cub Cadet has an extension for it.
Let us know what you use and how you like the suspension kit.
@hackthehoneydolist I will be wiring with a 16ga 4-wire trailer set. I'll use the shrink wrap and the same wire tubing that is already on it. I can't find the same color pattern, but that's ok it will be covered anyway.
@@nothenrycavill1889 sounds good, let us know how it turns out!
The spacers between the seat and the Trac are to give more room for the seat safety. There is nothing that it will do to improve ride quality and only adds unecessary height if not needed to clear the seat safety.
Yes I believe that is true. I am also tall and like the extra height. The reason I used them was for the seat safety and I did not know the spacers underneath were for clearance at the time I made the original video, so I made this video where I put the spacers under the suspension kit for the required clearance for full travel of the suspension kit.
Not sure if that's really true. At the 6:04 mark you can see the seat suspension have more room to move right where he had the paint rubbing. Does seem a bit odd that it wouldn't just come with those spacers though if they're actually needed.
Where did you get your Spacer Kit?
tracseats.com/shop/ols/products/8-spacer-kit-3-4 Straight from Trac Seats, that is not an affiliate link. These are cheaper than any seat spacer kit on Amazon that I have seen.
@@hackthehoneydolist i made the same mistake and didn't put any spacers. i just mounted it directly to the plate and honestly thought I got ripped off because I could not feel any difference. after watching this I ordered some new spacers and we'll see if there's any difference.
@@dontump2286 you will definitely notice the difference. Also reach out to them, they are very helpful. Let us know how you like it after the spacers are on.
Without the space afforded by a sliding rail, how did you think the Trac Seat was going to function?
Didn’t dawn on me. Pardon me for making a mistake, correcting it and then admitting it. Thanks for your feedback.
