I am buying a 1949 super a, the suspension for the seat is like an M. It has plates mounted to the axle housings like the super a with the hinged seat. There is a tube about 1 1/2in. to 2in. in diameter that runs between the plates. The spring that looks line an M seat spring is mounted to this tube. There are two L shaped brackets[one left, and one right]mounted to the floor board. There is a tube that is welded perpendicular to the tube that the spring is sitting on and hinges between the two brackets just mentioned, it even has the shock absorber. I am buying this tractor from a person that has been working on tractors for many years, I mentined that I had never seen this before and he showed me another tractor that had been parted out with this arrangement. Sorry for the long winded question, but am I missing somthing here. Thanks for any help.

it was aftermarket. ih dealers here sold them. have one on a super a that dad bought new in 1950. said he used the flat seat one day and did good to be able to walk the next. went to dealer and bought the last oen he had at the time. paid $32 for it. still have the original seat that has only been used 1 day. do not know of another in this area with the same type seat. wade- cullman alabama

To my knowledge, the super A came from the factory with the same type seat as the earlier model A's. However, you could buy an aftermarket seat such as the one you are describing. They were made by the same people that made the Monroe and E-Z ride seats for the C's, H's, and M's. You can always go back to the original seat as everything you need from mounting brackets to springs to seat pan to underneath tool box is available through several sources. It just depends on how much you are willing to spend to put it back to its original state.

It is not OEM, just a modification.
