YARDMAX 11 x 2 in. Rear Drive Wheel for YG2760 — Replacement OEM-Style Fit, Improved Traction

Replacement 11" x 2" rear drive wheel built to restore traction and stability to YARDMAX RWD YG2760 lawn mowers.

When a worn or damaged rear drive wheel affects your mower's performance, swapping in a correctly sized replacement returns smooth, reliable operation. This 11 in. x 2 in. rear drive wheel is designed specifically for use on YARDMAX rear-wheel-drive mowers YG2760 (and is compatible in AWD YG2960 assemblies where the same rear wheel spec is used), offering the correct diameter, tread contact, and fit to match factory dimensions.

Will this wheel fit my YARDMAX mower model?

This wheel is manufactured to match the 11" x 2" specification used on YARDMAX RWD model YG2760 and the AWD YG2960 where rear-wheel dimensions are identical. Confirm your mower’s model number before ordering to ensure compatibility. If your mower uses a different rim size, tire width, or axle bore, this wheel may not be suitable.

• Spec: 11 inches diameter x 2 inches tread width
• Primary fit: YARDMAX RWD model YG2760
• Also compatible with YARDMAX AWD YG2960 rear wheel position where applicable
• Check axle bore and mounting style against your mower

How do I install the replacement rear drive wheel?

Installation is straightforward with basic hand tools and a safe, leveled workspace. Remove the mower from service, support it securely, pull the wheel off the axle hub, and slide the new wheel into place—reinstall fasteners per your mower manual.

• Tools needed: wrench set and possibly a mallet for stubborn hubs
• Support the mower with blocks or a jack stand before working underneath
• Inspect and grease the axle/hub before mounting the new wheel
• Tighten nuts/retainers to manufacturer torque specs

What performance differences should I expect after replacement?

A new wheel restores the original ground contact, improving traction, steering feel, and even wear on the remaining tires. Replacing a cracked or excessively worn wheel reduces vibration, helps maintain consistent cutting height, and prevents slippage in wet or uneven turf.

• Better traction during turns and climbs
• Reduced vibration and drivetrain strain
• More consistent mowing height and smoother operation
• Extends life of adjacent drivetrain components

Are there maintenance steps to keep the wheel lasting longer?

Regular inspection and basic upkeep extend wheel life: check for cracks, embedded debris, and uneven wear; keep the hub clean and lightly lubricated; and store the mower off soft ground to prevent flat spots on the tire. Address issues promptly to avoid damage to the axle or transmission.

• Inspect for cuts, splits, or uneven tread wear monthly
• Clean mud and grass from the hub area after each use
• Apply light grease to axle contact surfaces during installation
• Store on a hard surface or use stands to prevent flat spots

Who this is for: This replacement wheel is intended for YARDMAX owners and maintenance professionals who need a direct-fit, OEM-style rear drive wheel for YG2760 machines—ideal when the original wheel is cracked, worn smooth, or otherwise compromised. Choose this part if you want to restore factory dimensions and dependable traction without modifying your mower.
