Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Will this fit other Bad Boy models besides the MZ? A: The plate is specifically shaped for the MZ deck opening; check your model's discharge chute dimensions before ordering if you intend to use it on a different series.

Q: Do I need to remove the chute deflector? A: You may need to unbolt the original chute deflector or hold it up, but the plate mounts directly over the opening; refer to your mower manual for proper disassembly.

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