When your Cub Cadet's seat is cracked, worn, or just too saggy for comfortable mowing, you're faced with a decision: find a seat that mounts correctly or risk a wobbly ride. This SEAT - OEM QUALITY FOR CUB CADET LAWN GARDEN TRACTOR 100 124 800 982 984 1650 is a new, metal-pan replacement that aims to fit several popular Cub Cadet models.

#### Quick Verdict If you own a Cub Cadet like the 100, 124, 800, 982, 984, or 1650 and need a straightforward replacement, this seat is a strong contender. It comes in new condition with an OEM-style design and a metal pan for support. The seat is built around the 11" x 8" bolt pattern that many Cub Cadets use, but it also accommodates several other bolt-pattern measurements, so you'll need to measure your current mounting holes to be sure it lines up.
#### Who It Suits This seat makes sense for homeowners who want a direct replacement without hunting for a used original. The named models are older Cub Cadet lawn and garden tractors, and this seat is aimed squarely at that group. It's also a good match if you prefer a seat with a metal pan under the cushion rather than a plastic base.
#### What Stands Out Compatibility is the main story. The seat is explicitly intended for six Cub Cadet models: 100, 124, 800, 982, 984, and 1650. It also uses the common 11" x 8" bolt pattern, which gives many Cub Cadet owners a clear reference point. The seat's new condition means you're not dealing with wear from a previous owner. And the metal pan adds a solid foundation that supports the foam and cover.
The bolt-pattern flexibility is another point in its favor. The seat is said to work with multiple width and length combinations, including 6.0" x 5.0", 7.5" x 3.0", 7.5" x 7.0", 8.2" x 5.0", 8.5" x 1.63", 11.0" x 8.0", and 11.25" x 11.0". While 11.0" x 8.0" is the primary fit, the range of measurements gives you a way to compare against your tractor.
#### Meaningful Trade-Offs The main trade-off is that this is not a universal fit. Even though the 11" x 8" pattern is common, you have to confirm your tractor's bolt spacing matches one of those measurements. If your Cub Cadet isn't in the named model list, the bolt-pattern dimensions become your only reliable guide-and if your spacing isn't among them, the seat won't mount correctly.
At USD 140.00, this is a dedicated replacement seat with no stated extras. There's no mention of a seat belt, suspension, or armrests, so it's a functional swap-in rather than a comfort upgrade. If you need raised seating or lumbar support, this likely won't offer it.
#### Bottom Line For a Cub Cadet owner who wants a new, metal-pan replacement seat with clear bolt-pattern guidance, this OEM-quality option at USD 140.00 is a sensible pick for the right model. Measure your existing seat's bolt spacing before committing-if it matches the 11" x 8" pattern or one of the other listed measurements, you have a solid path forward.
