8TEN Deck Wheel Kit for Cub Cadet MTD Troy Bilt M50-KHS Z-Force 60 1515 2166 2518-44 1517 2164 703-1890A 903-1890

What It Is

This deck wheel kit replaces worn or missing anti-scalp wheels on select Cub Cadet, MTD, and Troy-Bilt zero-turn mowers (e.g., Z-Force 60, 1515, 2166) and lawn tractors (e.g., 2518-44, 1517, 2164). It helps prevent scalping on uneven terrain and protects the deck from ground contact.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify:

• OEM cross-reference: Replaces Cub Cadet/MTD parts 703-1890A and 903-1890. If your mower uses these numbers, it fits.
• Deck size: Works with 44", 50", 60" decks on models listed. Not universal for all MTD/Cub decks—confirm your deck’s wheel bracket spacing.
• Bolt pattern: Uses a 3/8" shoulder bolt (included). If your deck has a different bolt size (e.g., 5/16"), you may need to drill or source a different kit.
• Wheel dimensions: 4" diameter, 1" wide. Measure your old wheel’s OD and width—if larger or smaller, this kit won’t match.
• Thread type: Standard SAE threads. Does not fit metric bolts.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Hard plastic wheels with steel bushings—durable for residential use but not commercial-grade. May wear faster on gravel or concrete.
• Installation: Simple bolt-on job. Remove old wheel, slide new one on, tighten bolt to 15-20 ft-lbs. No special tools.
• Common gotcha: The included bolt may be too short for decks with thick brackets. Check bracket thickness before forcing; you may need a longer Grade 8 bolt.
• Missing hardware: Kit includes 2 wheels, 2 bolts, 2 lock washers. If your deck uses flat washers or spacers, reuse the old ones.

Should You Buy It

If your Cub Cadet, MTD, or Troy-Bilt deck wheel is worn or broken and your model matches the list, this is a cost-effective, direct-fit replacement. Not for commercial mowing or decks with metric hardware—skip it if you need heavy-duty steel wheels or a different bolt pattern.
