Mower Anti Scalp Deck Wheel Kit Set of 6 Compatible with Bad Boy 022-5234-98 Exmark 103-4051 103-7263 & Many Bore 5/8" Wheel Size

What It Is

This anti-scalp deck wheel kit prevents the mower deck from digging into turf during turns or on uneven terrain. Designed for zero-turn mowers with a 5/8-inch bore, it’s a direct replacement for worn or missing OEM wheels on Bad Boy and Exmark models.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Check bore size: Requires a 5/8-inch axle or spindle. Measure your existing wheel’s inner hole—if it’s not exactly 5/8”, this kit won’t fit.
• Confirm OEM part numbers: Compatible with Bad Boy 022-5234-98 and Exmark 103-4051, 103-7263. Cross-reference your mower’s deck model with these numbers.
• Deck size/type: Works on most 48–72 inch zero-turn decks with four or six wheel positions. Verify your deck has mounting holes for six wheels (some use four).
• Aftermarket note: These are non-OEM replacements. They fit the listed models but may have slightly different plastic or bearing quality than originals.

Key Things to Know

• Installation is simple: Remove the old wheel and snap on the new one—no tools needed if you have a retaining clip or cotter pin. May require a washer if the axle is longer.
• Durability varies: Some users report the plastic hub wears faster than OEM on heavy use or rocky terrain. Check for cracks after a season.
• Set of six: You get six wheels, which is handy if your deck uses all six positions. If you only need four, you’ll have spares.
• No bearings included: These are solid plastic wheels with a metal bushing. They won’t roll as freely as bearing-equipped OEM wheels, but they prevent scalping effectively.

Should You Buy It

If you need a budget-friendly replacement for worn anti-scalp wheels on a Bad Boy or Exmark zero-turn with a 5/8-inch bore, this kit works well for residential or light commercial use. For heavy commercial duty or rough terrain, consider OEM or bearing-style wheels for longer life.
