What It Is

This is an aftermarket hardware kit for anti-scalp deck wheels, designed to prevent mower deck scalping on uneven terrain. It includes two wheels, brackets, and mounting hardware, compatible with zero-turn and riding mowers from Kubota, Exmark, and Toro.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your mower’s deck size (typically 48–72 inches) and wheel bolt pattern. This kit replaces OEM part numbers 103-3168, 68-2730, K5371-42110, and 1-603299. It fits select Kubota, Exmark (models using 103-3168, 103-7263, 103-4051), and Toro zero-turn mowers. Measure the existing wheel diameter and axle hole size (usually 0.5–0.75 inches). Check that the bracket thickness matches your deck’s mounting slot—some decks require a spacer if the bracket is too thin. Not compatible with non-standard deck designs or older mowers with proprietary mounts.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Aftermarket grade; wheels are solid rubber but may wear faster than OEM. Hardware is zinc-plated steel, adequate for residential use.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty. Requires basic wrenches and possibly a socket set. Some users report needing to drill out rusted bolts on older decks.
• Common gotcha: The included bolts may be slightly longer or shorter than OEM—check clearance with deck belts and spindles before tightening fully.
• Pack size: Sold as a 2-pack; you may need 4 wheels for larger decks (check your mower’s original count).

Should You Buy It

This kit is a solid budget-friendly option if you need quick replacement wheels for light-duty residential mowing on uneven ground. Skip it if you need commercial-grade durability or exact OEM fitment—spend more on genuine parts for heavy use or precise compatibility.
