The Honda 24468-VE2-M00 Wheel Tension Spring is a genuine OEM replacement designed for HRR216 and HRT216 lawn mowers. As a direct OEM component, this spring is manufactured to Honda's exact specifications, ensuring the self-propel drive system responds the way it was designed to. This part fits both the HRR216 and HRT216 — confirm your mower's serial number against the fitment table to ensure you have the correct application before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Tension — sourced directly from Honda, this spring delivers the calibrated tension the self-propel drive system depends on for crisp, consistent engagement and release.
- Direct OEM Replacement — this spring installs as a drop-in replacement on HRR216 and HRT216 lawn mowers, restoring the original drive feel without modification.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates parts at production breaks, so cross-check your mower's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the right spring for your unit.
- Restored Drive Response — a fatigued or broken wheel tension spring causes sluggish or erratic self-propel engagement; replacing it brings the drive control back to its original, responsive feel.
The Wheel Tension Spring is a small but load-bearing component in the self-propelled drive system of Honda walk-behind lawn mowers. It maintains the correct amount of tension on the drive cable or engagement mechanism, ensuring the wheel drive engages smoothly when the operator squeezes the bail and releases cleanly when it is let go. When this spring weakens, stretches, or breaks, the drive system can feel loose, fail to engage fully, or disengage unexpectedly during use — making reliable propulsion difficult on slopes or in heavier grass conditions.
