Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Does this damper fit both Exmark Lazer Z and Toro Z Master G3 without modification? A: Yes, it directly replaces the OEM damper on those models; confirm your serial number if machine was built after 2020.

Q: What tells me the damper needs replacement? A: Excessive steering wheel play, fluid leaks, or a clunk when turning the wheel indicate a worn damper.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
