Not that i've seen, usually going lower.. I'm sure you've done or seen it - see lots of dirt bike seats get modified.. Screw driver and pliers will help get all the staples out, put a piece of foam or something under the pad to raise it and staple your cover back on..

Go google some of your local automotive appolsty shops.
They can pull the seat skin and add as much height as you want.
They can recover the seat in cutom one off colors if you want also.

It’s my thing, but seriously I could see you ask that question for a trail sled, why ruin a mtn sled

ya I’ll maybe look into this route. Can’t find any aftermarket seats. Too bad mountain mod quit making seats. Had those on my Apex and Nytro and they were awesome

Haha sorry man, I'm 5'8" on a hot day. Lol
Different problems.

But on a serious note, take that seat to Wayne's upholstrys maybe cost you $100 to get it modified how you want.
On Argyl, just west of the cat dealer.

They have done lots of work for me.
Top notch.

what about the seats for the 4 stroke mountain sleds, or the High Country sleds. They are quite a bit taller and longer. I'm pretty sure they would work without any modification but can't say for sure.

The four stroke one or electric start one isn’t any higher only longer, the trail sled ones might work though, higher and longer

4 stroke seats are higher and longer. Measured last year when comparing my sidewinder and mtn cat. 4 stroke/electric start seats won’t work cause the tank is different.

Ive had both as well and rode them from one day to the next on the same trips, and the difference in height is pretty much non existent, its what.... maybe a 1-2cm? definitely isnt what your looking for, from the sounds of it your looking for a significant rise.
