Super service
My Wheel Dust Cover from the right front wheel of my lawnmower was broken. To find the right replacement part on "eReplacementParts.com" was very easy. The delivery by USPS to my PO Box was very fast.

I had no idea this was even available, it’s definitely an important part for keeping the self propelled gears clear of grass and debris.

Broken wheel dust cover was allowing grass clippings to clog the gear for the front-wheel drive system.

Removed the front wheel with a socket wrench, cleaned the grass out of the wheel and drive gears, and replaced the broken dust cover with a new one. After replacing the wheel, the mower is as good as new.
The best part of this project was the ease with which the part could be purchased from ereplacementparts.com.

Took off tire and wheel, one nut, replaced dust cover and put on new wheel. Old wheel was usable but the drive gear had a lot of wear. Mainly because with the broken dust cover grass cuttings were packed in the wheel.
