2 Pack 734-04155 Deck Wheel Kit with 734-0973 Deck Wheel Replaces 734-04155 73404155 734-0973 7340973 for Craftsman PYT9000, Cub Cadet LTX1042 LTX1046 LTX1050, Troy Bilt TB42 TB2246 Tractors

What It Is

This is a 2-pack replacement deck wheel kit (734-04155) that includes the wheel and bracket assembly, designed to support the mower deck on uneven terrain and prevent scalping. It’s intended for use on Craftsman PYT9000, Cub Cadet LTX1042/LTX1046/LTX1050, and Troy Bilt TB42/TB2246 lawn tractors.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower’s model number and deck size (typically 42–46 inches). This kit replaces OEM part numbers 734-04155, 73404155, 734-0973, and 7340973. It will not fit all Cub Cadet or Troy Bilt models—only those listed. Measure your existing wheel bracket’s bolt hole spacing (center-to-center) and wheel diameter; this kit uses a 5-inch wheel with a 3/8-inch bolt. If your deck has a different mounting pattern or wheel size, it won’t align. Check your owner’s manual or look up your model on the manufacturer’s site for exact part cross-reference.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Aftermarket replacement, not OEM. Users report it holds up well on moderate terrain but may wear faster than genuine parts on heavy use.
• Installation: Simple bolt-on job—remove the old wheel/bracket, slide the new one into the deck slot, and tighten the bolt. No special tools needed.
• Gotcha: Some decks require a spacer or washer to prevent the wheel from rubbing the deck shell. Check clearance before tightening fully. Also, the bracket’s pivot may be slightly stiff at first; a drop of oil helps.
• Pack size: You get two assemblies, but some tractors use four wheels. Verify your deck’s wheel count before buying.

Should You Buy It

If you own one of the listed models and need a quick, affordable fix for worn deck wheels, this kit is a solid value. It’s best for light-to-moderate mowing on flat to gently rolling lawns. For heavy-duty commercial use or if you want guaranteed longevity, stick with OEM parts.
