This is an aftermarket lower hood panel for compatible John Deere lawn and garden tractors. It is part of the tractor’s hood and body system, helping cover the front engine area and support the proper fit of the surrounding hood components. Built to match OEM This replacement lower hood is made to match the original part’s general shape, mounting layout, and installed position. It is intended to restore the proper lower hood fit without changing the tractor’s factory-style body arrangement. Installation Installation is a straightforward replacement job using normal hand tools. Confirm your machine has a liquid-cooled engine before ordering, as this lower hood is only intended for those applications and should not require modifications when used on the correct machine. .product-description-v2 { font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #1d1d1d; line-height: 1.55; max-width: 720px; } .product-description-v2 > div { margin-bottom: 18px; } .product-description-v2 h3 { font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; color: #1d1d1d; margin: 0 0 8px; } .product-description-v2 p { margin: 0; font-size: 15px; } @media (max-width: 768px) { .product-description-v2 { font-size: 15px; } }
