I recently purchased a FMD. I like the tractor except the seat is to confining. I moved it as far back as it appears to go but it is still a tight squeeze to get in. My wife (about 110 lbs) even has a difficult time getting on and off the tractor. Any suggustions?? The seat seems to be the correct size.

The problem is most likely the fenders! I’ve been told the fenders were designed to mount all the way to the front of the running boards because in Europe the tractors were used on the roads a lot. The longer fender kept the driver safer and dryer.
I’ve thought about chopping the fenders on one of mine to look more like the “triangle shaped” fenders on a newer Ford, or even picking up a newer set to replace the originals. I don’t think I have the hart to cut up a set of perfectly good ones.
