Mr Mower Parts Self Centering Steering Damper for Hustler 795351 RD Super Z 60 71 EX

What It Is

This self-centering steering damper reduces steering effort and automatically returns the front wheels to center on zero-turn mowers, specifically designed for Hustler Super Z models. It replaces a worn or failed OEM damper to restore smooth, predictable handling.

Fitment & Compatibility

Direct fit for: Hustler Super Z 60 and Super Z 71 (deck sizes 60" and 71"), plus RD models. Replaces OEM part number 795351.
Before buying:

• Measure the damper’s extended and compressed length (approx. 14.5" extended, 10" compressed) to match your existing unit.
• Check that your mounting holes are 8mm or 5/16" – this damper uses standard clevis ends with 8mm bolts.
• If your mower has a different OEM damper (e.g., Hustler 795352), this will not fit. Verify your current part number.
• Not compatible with Hustler FasTrak, Sport, or other non-Super Z series.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Aftermarket part at about half the OEM price. Users report it feels identical to OEM in damping force and durability.
• Installation: Simple bolt-on – remove two pins/bolts, swap dampers, reinstall. No special tools needed.
• Gotcha: Check that the damper rod moves smoothly in both directions before installing. Some units may need a few cycles to loosen up.
• Tip: If your steering is jerky or won’t self-center, the damper is likely worn – replacing it restores proper feel.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Hustler Super Z 60 or 71 and need to replace a worn 795351 damper, this is a solid, cost-effective alternative to OEM. It’s a direct fit, easy to install, and performs like the original. Skip it if you have a different Hustler model or a non-Super Z series.
