Stens Drive Wheel

This wheel is specifically engineered for Craftsman 22-inch self-propelled mowers. Before purchasing, verify that your current wheel matches the 8 x 1.75-inch size, the 0.5-inch bore diameter, and the 53-tooth count to ensure proper engagement with your drive system.

No, this listing is for the replacement drive wheel only. You will need to reuse the existing hardware, such as the bolt, washer, and nut, from your current wheel assembly.

Yes, this wheel is constructed from durable, high-impact plastic designed to withstand the rigors of standard residential lawn maintenance. While it is robust, it is intended specifically for use on grass and typical yard surfaces rather than rocky or paved terrain.

The 1.625-inch hub offset refers to the distance from the mounting surface to the center of the wheel. This specific measurement is critical because it ensures the wheel aligns correctly with the mower's drive gear and axle, preventing slippage or uneven wear.

It is generally recommended to replace both drive wheels simultaneously. Replacing them as a pair ensures even traction and consistent propulsion, which helps maintain the mower's balance and prevents the drive system from working harder on one side than the other.
