Clark Forklift Seats

Looking for a Clark forklift seat usually means one of two things: the vinyl is split and the foam is showing, or the seat switch has quit and the truck won't move. This page holds 96 related listings, from full seats to the switch, belt and cushion that go with them. Seventy-seven carry a part number you can check against your old seat, and the 19 seats that name several makes carry none.

Read the wording before you order, because the range is wider than the word "seat" suggests. Some listings are seats built for several makes at once, and a few are not seats at all. A "1808123 VALVE SEAT FOR CLARK CJ55 HYDRAULIC UNIT" shows up here only because of its name. If a listing starts with "FOR CLARK," it's an aftermarket replacement made to fit Clark trucks, not a seat made by Clark.

Vinyl, Cloth and Suspension Seats

Vinyl is the main cover, with about 60 listings, against 14 in cloth. A handful, four in all, are suspension seats, and four are folding seats, so check which you need before you click. Some give dimensions in inches. One reads "FOR Clark 1800942, VINYL FORKLIFT SEAT, (18.00"H X 18.00"W X 21.00"D)," and another is listed at 22.75" x 19.5" x 19.5" in cloth. Measure your seat pan against figures like those.

About 23 listings include a switch, shown as "W/SWITCH," as in "FOR CLARK SEAT - CLOTH W/SWITCH 1802151-E." Others are "Fabric +Switch" and mention the number they replace. If your truck has a seat switch, a listing without one means ordering the switch separately.

Clark Forklift Seat Switches, Belts and Cushions

Switches are the biggest add-on group, with 28 listings that name one: 25 are seats that come with a switch and 3 are seat switches on their own. Two of those three have a harness, and "FOR CLARK SWITCH - SEAT W/HARNESS 7005764" bundles the harness with the switch, while the plain switch 7004111 does not mention one. The forklift switches page has a wider range for other makes.

Four listings are bottom cushions, such as "NEW FOR CLARK FORKLIFT SEAT BOTTOM CUSHION CLOTH 1242193," which suit a seat whose frame is sound. Two more are belts, "CLARK 2813876 belt - seat retractable" and "FOR CLARK FORKLIFT SEAT BELT RETRACTABLE 56 INCH PARTS 923918," and three seats are listed with a belt. For other brands, the forklift seat belts page has 28 and the forklift seats page has about 1,500.

Universal Seats That Name Clark

Nineteen of the 96 listings name more than one make, and seven are described as universal. One reads "New Universal Forklift Seat FOR Cat Clark Komatsu Nissan," and another lists Hyster, Yale, Toyota and Mitsubishi in the same line. That helps when a shop runs mixed trucks and wants one seat that lists several makes. It also means the seat may show up on other pages, so compare against Hyster seats, Yale seats or Caterpillar seats if you're shopping around.

Matching a Clark Seat Number

Clark seat numbers are mostly six or seven digits: 448492, 926580, 1802036, 3464268. Twenty-three end in a letter, 21 of them in -E, as in 1802151-E, 448492-E and 2389314R, and the ending matters because the same digits can be a different listing with a switch. One listing even says "replaces part number 1802151," so a number you can't find may be the one it replaced.

Search the digits first, then add the suffix. If you can't read the seat's own number, the listing name and cover type are the next best clue. We have been selling parts on eBay as ouroverstock since 2004, and that record includes being a Top Rated Seller, with 99.9% positive feedback.

Clark Seat FAQ

How many of these listings are actual seats?

Most of the 96 are, but 11 are switches, belts, cushions or valve seats. Look at the wording on each one.

Does "W/SWITCH" mean the switch is in the box?

It means the listing says the seat has one, and 23 use that exact wording. Where a listing doesn't say, treat the switch as a separate purchase.

Can one seat suit more than one make?

Some listings name several, like the universal seats for Cat, Komatsu and Nissan. Check the names in the wording against your truck.

Where do I go for other Clark parts?

The main Clark forklift parts page covers every part type. Close neighbors are Clark starters and Clark ignition switches.
