New Replacement Toro Self Propel 22" Recycler Front Wheel Drive Mower 105-1845 60-530

What It Is

This is a replacement front wheel assembly for Toro 22" Recycler self-propelled mowers, designed to restore drive engagement and smooth rolling when the original wheel’s drive gear or hub wears out.

Fitment & Compatibility

• OEM Part Numbers: Replaces Toro 105-1845 and 60-530. Aftermarket version, not genuine Toro.
• Mower Models: Fits most Toro 22" Recycler self-propelled models (e.g., 20332, 20333, 20334, 20340, 20341, 20342) from the mid-2000s through current production. Check your model number on the deck sticker or under the seat.
• Measurement: Wheel diameter is 8 inches. Axle hole is 5/8 inch. Drive gear is a 7-tooth plastic gear. Measure your existing wheel’s diameter and gear tooth count to confirm.
• What to Check: Verify your mower uses a front-wheel drive system (not rear-wheel or all-wheel). If your original wheel has a metal gear or a different tooth count, this won’t fit.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Plastic construction is functional but less durable than the OEM Toro wheel. Some users report the gear wearing faster than the original, especially on rough terrain.
• Installation: Simple swap – remove the hairpin clip and washer, pull off the old wheel, slide on the new one, and reinstall the hardware. No tools beyond pliers needed.
• Common Gotcha: The wheel may fit slightly loose on the axle. Add a thin washer if you notice wobble after installation. Also, the included axle clip can be brittle – use the original clip if possible.
• Performance: Works fine for flat, well-maintained lawns. On bumpy ground or with heavy use, the gear may skip or wear prematurely.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a quick, cheap fix for a worn front wheel on a Toro 22" Recycler and don’t mind replacing it again in 1-2 seasons. It’s a good budget option for light-duty mowing. Skip it if you want OEM durability or have a heavy-use commercial property – spend a few dollars more on the genuine Toro wheel.
