Abstract
This disclosure is directed to a buddy seat for a tractor. From the bottom, it incorporates a J-shaped frame having three legs, the longer vertical leg extending upward into a seat portion. It terminates at the bottom with a horizontally bent portion on the floorboard and an upstanding distal leg adjacent to the hump in the floorboard. That leg connects with a transverse or horizontal foundation leg with fasteners for attachment. The back of the seat is orthopedically shaped to define a back cushion, a bottom cushion is adjacent to it, and the two cushions are supported by an L-shaped bracket. The bracket has an included angle to provide comfort to the passenger.
