Parts 4 Outdoor Aftermarket Deck Wheel Kits 2Pk Replacement for Snapper Pro Ferris 1500 Simplicity 1714760 210-043 12060 IS500Z

What It Is

This aftermarket deck wheel kit (2-pack) replaces worn or missing anti-scalp wheels on zero-turn mowers from Snapper Pro, Ferris, and Simplicity. It’s designed to prevent the mower deck from scalping uneven turf by keeping the deck level during turns and on slopes.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify these three things:

• Original OEM part numbers: This kit replaces Snapper 1714760, Ferris 210-043, and Simplicity 12060 IS500Z. If your mower uses any of those, these wheels should bolt on.
• Deck size & mounting: Fits most 48″–61″ decks on Snapper Pro S, Ferris IS1500Z/IS2000Z, and Simplicity ZT series. Check that your deck has two mounting holes spaced 3.5″ apart (center-to-center) and uses a 3/8″-16 bolt.
• Wheel dimensions: Each wheel is 6″ diameter x 2″ wide with a 1/2″ bearing bore. Measure your old wheel’s diameter and axle hole to confirm fit. These are solid rubber, not pneumatic, so they won’t go flat.

Pro tip: If your mower uses a different bolt pattern or axle size (e.g., 5/8″ bore), this kit won’t work.

Key Things to Know

• Quality vs OEM: These are aftermarket, but reviewers note they’re slightly stiffer rubber than stock. They hold up well on hard surfaces but may wear faster on rough terrain.
• Installation difficulty: Easy – typically 10 minutes per wheel. You’ll need a 3/8″ socket and a wrench. No drilling or modification required if your deck already has the mounting holes.
• Common gotcha: The included bolts may be too short for decks with thick brackets. Check your existing bolt length – if it’s over 1.5″, reuse your original hardware.
• Not for zero-turn mowers with grease fittings: These wheels are non-greaseable. If your original wheels had a zerk fitting, this kit won’t match.

Should You Buy It

If your Snapper Pro, Ferris, or Simplicity zero-turn has worn or missing deck wheels, this $20 pair is a solid value. It’s an easy DIY fix that improves cut quality and prevents scalping. Just confirm your deck’s bolt pattern and axle size before ordering – if it matches, buy with confidence. For commercial mowers seeing heavy daily use, OEM wheels may last longer, but for homeowners or light commercial use, these are a reliable, budget-friendly alternative.
