That is a common problem with the W-6's with the standard seat. Also from what I've heard (and by looking at the seat itself) the seat and its suspension are very uncomfortable. My uncle got tired of it, and fixed it by taking off the W-6 seat and putting an aftermarket Farmall M seat on. Because the seat is so much higher, he then heated up the frame of the seat, and bent it down to make it sit lower. Now, the pedals aren't such of a long reach, and it rides a lot smoother(still not like an M though, b/c small tires) The M seat seems to sit further forward to begin with, as I have no problems reaching the pedals, and I think it is in the most rearward hole. Only downside is that it is more difficult to get into the seat because the steering wheel and unloaded seat are so close. Just an idea.
