48" side discharge 78363

[stumplifter 9]

Need to replace the front wheels on this deck.  Part # is 68-2730.

Some places have 'full kit' wheels for sale but can't readily tell if they are the proper size.  Deck is in the Northwoods and I'm in MKE hope to get new wheels to take up next weekend. 

 

Anyone know the wheel dimensions?

Any problem buying from Amazon?

 

thanks

Paul

I've got a well used 48" deck, model number unknown.  I'll measure the wheels tomorrow.  

 

By wheels, I am assuming that you are talking about the anti scap rollers that mount on the front of the deck.

Yes the anti-scalp rollers that have radiused 'corners' on them.

Thank you for that.  I assume Exmark is cross compatible?  

The dimensions I had from Amazon inferred they were a 5/8" through hole 5" x 2.75" wide.    Wonder how much play is tolerable?

Yes, X-Mark, Wheel Horse, and others use the same 68-2730 deck wheel.    The X-Mark wheel is the only one that showed the size.

Thanks again for all of the assistance.   I got these:

The extra hardware wasn't necessary but it did go into my Miscellaneous Fastener jar.
