Remedy for a painfull posterior??

I am posting, seeking help and suggestions, for a facet of the SSR experience that has plagued me for years, that of the seat construction and it's affect on my comfort. The years of shop work have taken their toll on my hip joints, I am good for the first half hour or so, but after that my right leg starts to fall asleep ,and after an hour the hip pain sets in. I think most of this is coming from the narrow center cushion and the too firm lower seat bolsters that do not compress when sat upon. Those that have met me know that I am not a man of small proportion, so my "seating surface" is amply spread across the seat of the SSR. I have tried sitting on a pillow and that seems to work pretty well as it speads the load over a greater and more equal level. My question is, has anyone modified the lower seat cushions to raise the center, softened or reduced the side bolsters etc. to achieve seating happiness?, or do I just put another handful of Advil in the coin tray and move on?? Thanks in advance for the help and suggestions!
