Ford New Holland 4135 Tractor Parts
4135 parts and accessories
The Ford New Holland 4135, manufactured in the late 1980s and early 1990s, was a reliable and versatile utility tractor popular for its robust design and ease of use. Typically powered by a diesel engine producing around 50-60 horsepower, it delivered sufficient PTO horsepower for a variety of implements. Its dependability and practical features made it a favorite among farmers for everyday tasks.
The Ford New Holland 4135 was part of the '35 Series' tractors produced by Ford New Holland, designed to offer improved performance and comfort compared to earlier models. Production generally ran from the late 1980s into the early 1990s. Engine options typically included a Shibaura diesel engine, often a 3-cylinder or 4-cylinder variant, producing between 50 and 60 horsepower. Displacement generally ranged from 130 to 170 cubic inches. The transmission was typically a gear-type, offering various speeds, such as 8 forward and 2 reverse, or potentially more depending on the specific configuration. PTO horsepower typically fell in the 45-55 HP range, usually with a 540 RPM PTO shaft. Hydraulic capacity varied but usually provided adequate flow for operating loaders and other hydraulic implements. The 3-point hitch was usually a Category I or Category II, offering good lift capacity for implements like mowers, cultivators, and light tillage equipment. The 4135 was commonly used in row crop operations, hay production, and livestock management. Distinguishing it from other models in the lineup was its balance of power and affordability, making it a practical choice for smaller farms and general utility work.
