Kumar Bros USA New Lower Bagger Discharge Chute Fits John Deere L100 L105 L107 L108 Low S/N

What It Is

This is an aftermarket lower bagger discharge chute designed to replace the OEM chute on select John Deere lawn tractors. It directs grass clippings from the mower deck into the rear bagger system, and is intended for models with a low serial number (S/N) prefix.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower’s model and serial number. This chute fits John Deere L100, L105, L107, and L108 tractors only with low serial numbers (typically built before mid-2000s). It will not fit later production units. Also verify your deck size—this chute is for 42-inch or 48-inch decks (check your deck’s stamped model number). OEM part cross-reference: AM125188 (John Deere). Measure the chute mounting flange width and compare to your existing chute; aftermarket parts can vary slightly in dimensions, leading to gaps or poor seal.

Key Things to Know

• Quality concerns: The single 1.0/5 star rating suggests significant fit or durability issues. Expect thin plastic that may crack under stress or warp in heat.
• Installation difficulty: Mounting is straightforward (remove two bolts, swap chute), but alignment may require trimming or shimming if the chute doesn’t match your deck’s contour perfectly.
• Common gotchas: Low S/N compatibility is critical—many sellers list “fits L100” without clarifying serial number range. Check your tractor’s S/N tag (under seat or on frame). Also, this chute is for bagger systems only; it won’t work with side-discharge or mulching setups.
• OEM alternative: A genuine John Deere AM125188 chute costs more but is guaranteed to fit and last. Factor in potential return shipping if this aftermarket part doesn’t work.

Should You Buy It

Only buy this chute if you have a confirmed low-S/N L100-L108, you’re on a tight budget, and you’re willing to risk poor fitment and short lifespan. For most users, the OEM chute is a safer investment—especially given the single negative review and known compatibility pitfalls.
