shiosheng 4pcs 109808X 532109808 Mower Bagger Hood Latch Assembly Including Hardware for Craftsman, Husqvarna, Poulan Pro, Poulan, Weed Eater, Roper, Sears, Rally

What It Is

This is a set of four replacement latch assemblies used to secure the grass bagger hood to the mower deck. They are designed for Craftsman, Husqvarna, Poulan Pro, Poulan, Weed Eater, Roper, Sears, and Rally lawn tractors and zero-turn mowers with a bagger attachment.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower uses OEM part number 109808X or 532109808. These latches fit most 42-inch to 54-inch decks with a rear bagger hood, but not all—check that your hood has two plastic tabs on each side where these latches snap in. Measure the latch slot: the hook end should be about 1.5 inches long and the mounting hole spacing roughly 2.5 inches center-to-center. This is an aftermarket part, so it may not match the color or flex of OEM plastic exactly, but it should mechanically interchange.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Users report the plastic is slightly thinner than OEM, but the metal spring hook is durable. Expect 2–3 seasons of regular use before possible cracking.
• Installation: Easy—no tools required. Remove the old latch by prying the spring clip off the hood tab, then snap the new one in place. Takes 2 minutes per latch.
• Gotchas: The hardware included (screws, washers) is often unnecessary—most hoods use a clip-on design. Also, if your hood tabs are broken or warped, these latches won’t stay secured.
• Pack size: You get four latches, enough for a full set. Keep spares handy—they’re cheap and break faster than OEM.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a budget-friendly, functional replacement for broken or worn bagger hood latches on a compatible Craftsman or Husqvarna mower. It’s a good value for the price, but if you want OEM durability or your hood tabs are damaged, consider OEM parts instead.
