John Deere X354 Riding Mower Parts

The John Deere X354 is a popular lawn tractor known for its all-wheel steering, providing exceptional maneuverability. Produced from approximately 2016 onwards, it's powered by a reliable Kawasaki engine, typically around 18.5 HP. It came equipped with a 42-inch or 48-inch mower deck, making it a versatile choice for various lawn sizes and terrains.

The John Deere X354 was introduced as part of the X300 series, designed to offer premium features and performance for homeowners. Power comes from a Kawasaki FS600V engine, delivering around 18.5 horsepower. Its notable feature is the four-wheel steering, which significantly reduces the turning radius and enhances maneuverability around obstacles and tight spaces. The X354 is equipped with a hydrostatic transmission for smooth, pedal-controlled operation. Deck width options typically include 42-inch and 48-inch configurations, making it suitable for medium to large-sized lawns. This model is well-suited for residential use, particularly for properties with many obstacles or landscaping features that require precise maneuvering. Distinguishing it from other models in the X300 lineup, the X354's four-wheel steering sets it apart, providing a tighter turning radius and improved control compared to standard two-wheel steering models like the X330 or X350.
