My mower is a 54" cut JD Zero Turn. I have 5 acres that are uneven, hills, dips. I have gone thru lots of anti scalp wheels because when turning they dig into the lawn. I have been mowing my property for 25 years and have not been able to fix the problem. I have reset the wheels to every position that I can, I even took the wheels off, but then it scalp

Why can't manufactures make decks with swivel wheels??

Tell us the model and serial numbers of your mower.
Tell us what your cutting height is.
Tell us your type of grass.

Pull behind finish mowers are designed that way.

As for your ground, it sounds like it needs to be tilled, then leveled with a box blade.

Don't turn around on a dime , enlarge the circle to about silver dollar size until you find a solution .

I'm going to weld some steel plates and swivel casters to the deck, that are height adjustable.
