8TEN Deck Wheel Roller Kit for Cub Cadet Troy Bilt LT1050 LGT1050 SLT1550 Super Bronco 734-04155 734-0973 731-05679A

What It Is

The 8TEN Deck Wheel Roller Kit replaces worn or missing anti-scalp wheels on select Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, and MTD lawn tractors. It prevents the mower deck from scalping uneven ground during cutting.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your mower model: this kit fits Cub Cadet LT1050, LGT1050, SLT1550, and Troy-Bilt Super Bronco tractors with 42–50-inch decks. It replaces OEM part numbers 734-04155, 734-0973, and 731-05679A. Measure the existing wheel diameter (typically 6 inches) and axle hole size (5/8 inch). Check your deck’s mounting bracket spacing—this kit uses a 2-inch-wide roller with a metal bushing. Not compatible with zero-turn or push mowers.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: 8TEN wheels are hard plastic with a metal insert; they hold up well on smooth lawns but may wear faster on gravel or rough terrain.
• Installation: Simple bolt-on swap—remove the old wheel, slide on the new one, and secure with the included hardware. No special tools required.
• Common gotcha: The kit includes four wheels, but some decks only need two. Verify your deck’s wheel count before ordering.
• Fitment: The metal bushing may be slightly tight on some axles; a light tap with a hammer seats it properly.

Should You Buy It

If your LT1050, LGT1050, SLT1550, or Super Bronco has worn deck wheels causing scalping or uneven cuts, this kit is a direct, affordable fix. It’s ideal for DIY homeowners who want a quick, no-hassle replacement. Skip it if you need a heavy-duty wheel for rocky yards—consider a steel-belted option instead.
