You can use some generic parts on it, but in general it's best to stick with the brand name parts. You can find them for the John Deere 990 at http://www.greenfarmparts.com/John_Deere_Model_990_Tractor_Parts_s/274.htm

The John Deere 5420 is a good tractor to own because it is very quick, great for mowing large yards, and is a good deal. Although there are newer models, the 5420 is a great model to stick with.
If your John Deere seat malfunctioned, you may want to contact the company and see if they can't refund you or replace some parts. Since John Deere sells such reliable products, I would imagine their customer service would be great as well. I would also stick to buying John Deere parts for your John Deere so your warranty isn't violated.
