Lawn Mower Anti Scalp Deck Wheel Kit for Bad Boy 022-5234-98 Exmark 103-3168 103-4051 103-7263 1-603299 Husqvarna 539102643 Toro 1-603299 Bore 5/8" Wheel Size 6Pcs

What It Is

This is a 6-piece anti-scalp deck wheel kit designed to prevent mower deck scalping (scalping the turf when the deck tilts) on uneven terrain. It’s a direct replacement for OEM part numbers on select Bad Boy, Exmark, Husqvarna, and Toro zero-turn mowers.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify these three things:

• Bore size: 5/8" (required for the wheel to fit the spindle).
• Wheel size: 4" diameter (standard for most zero-turn decks; measure your old wheel’s outer diameter).
• Deck type: Works on 48", 52", 60", and 72" decks that use the listed OEM numbers. Not for universal or non-OEM spindles.

Cross-reference your mower’s model number with OEM parts: Bad Boy 022-5234-98, Exmark 103-3168, 103-4051, 103-7263, Husqvarna 539102643, Toro 1-603299. If your deck uses different spindle spacing or a 1/2" bore, this kit won’t fit.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: 4.1 rating (24 reviews) – generally good value for the price, but some users report plastic wheels wearing faster than OEM metal-reinforced versions.
• Installation: Easy bolt-on if your old wheels are the same size. You’ll need a 5/8" socket and a wrench. No special tools required, but check that the mounting studs aren’t rusted.
• Common gotcha: The included hardware may not match every deck’s bolt pattern. Measure your existing bolts (thread pitch, length) before buying. Some decks need a spacer if the wheel sits too close to the deck.
• Quantity: 6 wheels – confirm your deck uses 6 (most zero-turn decks do, but some 48" models use 4).

Should You Buy It

Buy this kit if you need a quick, affordable replacement for worn-out anti-scalp wheels on a compatible zero-turn mower and don’t mind plastic wheels that may need replacing every 1-2 seasons. Skip it if you want heavy-duty metal-reinforced wheels or have a non-listed brand/deck.
