John Deere Excavator Final Drive Motors & Travel Motors

John Deere excavators cover popular compact machines as well as larger models, and the correct travel motor can vary by application. Use the John Deere model selector above to reach the final drive listed for your excavator. If you have a Deere part number, a tag from the existing motor or a machine with previous drive work, our team can help compare the information before shipment.

Common John Deere travel-drive problems include case-drain issues, bearing and gearbox wear, gear-tooth damage, seal leakage and weak or slow travel. Together, those symptoms can help you understand whether the problem is hydraulic, mechanical or related to the reduction gearbox. We supply brand-new OEM-equivalent, highly durable replacement drives and support them with fast U.S. shipping and our Lifetime Limited Warranty.

Popular John Deere final drive applications include 35D, 35C ZTS, 35 ZTS, 35G, and 60G. The model selector above includes the full John Deere listing.

John Deere Final Drive Gearbox & Travel-Motor Problems

A restricted case drain dircuit can damage a hydraulic travel motor, while worn bearings, gears or seals can create a separate set of mechanical symptoms. Look for leakage, abnormal gearbox noise, excess play, loss of travel power or a track that becomes progressively slower. The cause matters because installing a new drive without correcting an external hydraulic problem can shorten the life of the replacement.

If you are unsure which John Deere unit fits, send us the machine model, current part number and motor-tag information. We can help cross-reference the drive and review the symptoms before you choose a replacement.
