2 Pack 734-0973 Deck Wheel Kit Replaces MTD 734-0973 7340973 41434 Toro 112-0337 for Craftsman T240 T225 T210 Cub Cadet XT1-LT46, LGTX1050, LT1018, LT1024, LT1045, MTD 42" 46" Deck Lawn Mower

What It Is

This 2-pack of deck wheel kits (model 734-0973) replaces OEM parts for MTD, Toro, and Cub Cadet mowers. They support the cutting deck to prevent scalping and reduce wear on the deck shell, commonly used on 42" and 46" residential lawn tractors.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, check three things:

• Deck size: Fits 42" and 46" stamped steel decks (not fabricated decks). Measure your deck’s width to confirm.
• OEM cross-reference: Replaces MTD 734-0973, 7340973, 41434, and Toro 112-0337. Verify your mower’s model number against these parts.
• Wheel dimensions: Each wheel is roughly 4" diameter with a 3/4" axle hole. Measure your existing wheel’s diameter and axle bolt spacing to ensure match. If your current wheel has a different bolt pattern or axle size, this kit won’t fit.

Common compatible mowers (partial list): Craftsman T240, T225, T210; Cub Cadet XT1-LT46, LGTX1050, LT1018, LT1024, LT1045; and MTD 42" or 46" deck tractors. Not for zero-turn mowers or older 38" decks.

Key Things to Know

• Installation difficulty: Easy—requires a wrench and about 10 minutes per wheel. No drilling or modification needed if replacing an existing wheel.
• Quality: Aftermarket kit with plastic wheels and steel brackets. Adequate for residential use, but may not hold up as long as OEM on rough terrain or heavy use.
• Gotcha: Some users report the included hardware (bolts, washers) may be slightly undersized for older decks. Keep your original hardware if possible.
• Quantity: This is a 2-pack. If your deck uses four wheels (common on 46" decks), you’ll need two packs. Check your current wheel count.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a budget-friendly replacement for worn or missing deck wheels on a 42" or 46" MTD/Cub Cadet/Craftsman lawn tractor and prefer a quick, no-mod installation. Skip it if you have a fabricated deck, a zero-turn mower, or need heavy-duty wheels for rocky or uneven ground—in those cases, spring for OEM or steel wheels.
