Ohoho 120-7037-03 Left Hand HOC Plate Compatible with Toro TimeMaster 30 Inch Mower Parts | Upgraded Reinforced Metal Front Wheel Height Adjustment Bracket | Fit for Models 20199 20200 20975 20977

What It Is

This is a replacement left-hand height-of-cut (HOC) plate for Toro TimeMaster 30-inch mowers. It adjusts the front wheel height to set your cutting deck level, and it’s designed for models with a 30-inch deck (20199, 20200, 20975, 20977).

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower has a 30-inch deck and is a Toro TimeMaster model. Check your current part number (OEM is often 120-7037-03 or similar). This aftermarket plate is a direct fit for OEM brackets, but measure the mounting hole spacing (typically 3.5 inches center-to-center) and the plate thickness (should match your old one). It replaces the left-hand side only—verify you need the left side (standing behind the mower, it’s the left wheel). Not compatible with 21-inch or 22-inch Toro mowers.

Key Things to Know

• Material upgrade: Reinforced metal vs. OEM plastic—less likely to crack under stress, especially on uneven terrain.
• Installation difficulty: Easy—usually requires removing one wheel and two bolts. No special tools needed beyond a socket wrench.
• Common gotcha: The bolt holes may need slight filing if the aftermarket plate is a hair thicker than OEM. Check alignment before tightening fully.
• Left vs. right: Double-check you’re ordering the left-hand plate. The right-hand side (for the other front wheel) is a different part number.

Should You Buy It

If your OEM HOC plate on a Toro TimeMaster 30-inch is cracked, bent, or worn, this is a solid, budget-friendly upgrade. It’s a straightforward swap for DIYers, and the reinforced metal adds durability over the stock plastic part. Not for other mower brands or deck sizes.
