8TEN LawnRAZOR Blade for MTD White Outdoor LT-13 38-Inch Deck 742-0654 (High Lift) 2 Pack

What It Is

The 8TEN LawnRAZOR Blade is a high-lift replacement blade set (2-pack) designed for 38-inch MTD and White Outdoor LT-13 mower decks. It’s built for improved grass discharge and bagging performance in residential lawn care.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Deck size: Fits 38-inch cutting decks only. Measure your deck width before buying.
• Brand/model: Direct replacement for MTD and White Outdoor LT-13 series mowers. Check your owner’s manual or deck model number (often stamped on the deck shell).
• OEM equivalent: Replaces MTD/White Outdoor OEM part number 742-0654. Cross-reference your existing blade’s part number.
• Measurements: Blade length is approximately 20 inches, center hole diameter 7/8-inch, and thickness 0.25 inches. Verify these match your current blade.
• High-lift design: Not suitable for side-discharge-only decks if you don’t need bagging performance.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Heat-treated steel with a durable coating resists rust and stays sharp longer than standard OEM blades.
• Installation difficulty: Moderate. You’ll need a socket wrench and blade removal tool. Torque blade bolts to 70-90 ft-lbs.
• Common gotcha: High-lift blades create more vibration if not balanced. Use a blade balancer after installation.
• Performance: Excellent for thick, wet grass but may reduce engine efficiency on small or underpowered mowers.

Should You Buy It

Buy these if you have an MTD or White Outdoor LT-13 with a 38-inch deck and want better bagging or discharge performance. They’re a solid upgrade over standard OEM blades for thick grass, but skip them if your deck is smaller or you only mulch.
