John Deere 3135 Tractor Parts

The John Deere 3135 was introduced in 1975 as part of the John Deere's 'Iron Horse' lineup, offering a balance of power and affordability for small to medium-sized farms. Production continued until 1981. The tractor is powered by a John Deere 4.5L (276 cu in) 4-cylinder diesel engine, rated at approximately 77 engine horsepower. Transmission options included a Syncro Range transmission with 8 forward and 4 reverse gears or a Powr-Quad transmission with 16 forward and 8 reverse gears, providing operators with flexibility in various field conditions. The 3135 delivers around 68 PTO horsepower via a standard 540 RPM PTO, suitable for operating a wide range of implements. Its hydraulic system offers a capacity of approximately 18.5 GPM, supporting two rear remotes. The tractor features a Category II 3-point hitch with a lift capacity of around 4,200 lbs, enabling it to handle implements for row crops, hay baling, and light tillage. Compared to smaller models like the 2030, the 3135 provided increased power and lifting capacity, while remaining more economical than larger, more sophisticated models like the 4040.
