CUB CADET 931-05474B Twin Bagger Hood Assembly 42" 46" 50" 54" Double Baggers

What It Is

The Cub Cadet 931-05474B is a twin bagger hood assembly designed for select Cub Cadet lawn tractors with 42", 46", 50", or 54" decks. It channels grass clippings from the mower deck into the twin bagger system, replacing a damaged or missing hood on compatible double bagger setups.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Check deck size first: This hood fits 42", 46", 50", and 54" decks, but only those on specific Cub Cadet models (e.g., LTX, XT1, XT2, XT3 series with twin baggers). Confirm your model number in the owner’s manual or parts diagram.
• OEM part: It’s a genuine Cub Cadet replacement, not aftermarket. That means exact fit for original equipment baggers, but no guarantee for older or non-Cub Cadet bagger systems.
• Measure existing hood: Length and mounting hole spacing vary by deck size. If you’re replacing a broken hood, match it physically before ordering.
• Not universal: This hood won’t work with single baggers or non-Cub Cadet mowers. It’s strictly for factory twin bagger systems on compatible tractors.

Key Things to Know

• Installation is straightforward – typically 4–6 bolts and a few clips. No special tools needed, but a socket set helps.
• Material feels durable – heavy-duty plastic that resists cracking, but avoid over-tightening bolts (strips easily).
• Common gotcha: The chute opening must align with your deck’s discharge. If your mower has a different chute design (e.g., side-discharge only), this won’t work.
• Check for included hardware – some reviews note missing bolts. Have a few M6 or 1/4" bolts on hand just in case.

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible Cub Cadet with a twin bagger and the original hood is cracked, warped, or missing, this is the correct OEM replacement. It’s a direct fit, easy to install, and reasonably priced for a genuine part. Skip it if you’re trying to retrofit a different brand or single bagger – you’ll need a different assembly.
