MTD 19B30031GFP 42"/46" Double Bagger for Cub Cadet Murray Troy-Bilt Pony Horse Bronco XP 775S 795S 795T 42 36 M1642

What It Is

The MTD 19B30031GFP is a factory-grade double bagger (two 6.5-bushel collection bags) designed for 42-inch and 46-inch cutting decks on select Cub Cadet, Murray, and Troy-Bilt lawn tractors. It’s for collecting clippings during heavy mulching or when you need a clean lawn without leaving windrows.

Fitment & Compatibility

Check these before buying:

• Deck size: Works only with 42” or 46” decks. Measure your deck width (blade tip to blade tip).
• Model family: Fits Cub Cadet XT1, XT2, XT3; Troy-Bilt Pony, Horse, Bronco XP; Murray models with 775S, 795S, 795T, 42, 36, M1642 engines. Verify your tractor’s model number against the OEM list.
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is a genuine MTD/Cub Cadet part—not a universal. It includes the hopper, chute, bags, and mounting hardware. No adapters needed if your deck has the factory quick-attach bracket.
• Measurements: Overall width ~48” (with bags installed); clearance required behind tractor for bagger swing. Ensure your rear hitch area has no obstructions (e.g., tow bar, bumper).

Key Things to Know

• Installation difficulty: Moderate—requires about 1–2 hours. You’ll need to remove the discharge chute, bolt on the support frame, and route the belt-driven impeller. Instructions are clear but have all tools ready.
• Quality: Heavy-duty plastic hopper and fabric bags with zippers for easy emptying. Impeller is steel, not plastic—handles wet grass better than many aftermarket units.
• Common gotcha: The bags are large—6.5 bushels each—so they get heavy (50+ lbs) when full. If you have a steep slope or limited dump-site access, consider a single bagger or smaller capacity.
• Deck compatibility: If your tractor has a mulching plug or side-discharge kit, you must remove it. The bagger uses the same mounting points.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you have a compatible Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, or Murray tractor with a 42” or 46” deck, want OEM fitment and reliability, and need to collect clippings efficiently for a clean finish. Skip it if your deck lacks the factory bracket, your budget is tight, or you’re fine with side-discharge mulching.
