Exhaust Elbow for Massey Ferguson 35/135 & Leyland 245/253 with Perkins 3-Cylinder Engines

Description

When that crack in your old exhaust elbow starts letting hot gases leak all over your engine compartment, you know it’s time to replace it before things get worse. This exhaust elbow connects your manifold to the exhaust pipe, keeping those hot diesel fumes where they belong—out of the cab and away from sensitive engine components. It’s built for the classic MF 35 and 135 tractors with their reliable three-cylinder Perkins engines that still earn their keep on farms worldwide.

What You’re Getting

• 135-degree bend that routes exhaust gases efficiently from manifold to pipe without kinks or restrictions
• Heavy-duty cast construction that handles the extreme heat and vibration these engines dish out day after day
• Three-bolt mounting pattern that lines up perfectly with your existing manifold setup
• Precision-machined flanges that seal tight and prevent those annoying exhaust leaks
• Direct replacement design—no modifications needed to make it work with your existing setup

Built for Real Farm Work

The Massey Ferguson 135 is one of the most beloved utility tractors ever built, with hundreds of thousands still working farms around the world. Whether you’re using yours for hay operations, running a loader, pulling implements, or handling daily chores around the place, that dependable Perkins three-cylinder needs proper exhaust flow to keep delivering its full power. The MF 35 and Leyland 245/253 are equally tough workhorses that deserve quality replacement parts.

Made to Last

This elbow is built from heavy-duty cast material that won’t crack under the constant heat cycling these engines put it through. The casting is thick enough to handle temperature swings from cold morning startups to full-throttle field work, and the finish resists corrosion from exhaust gases and weather. It’s designed to give you years of trouble-free service.

Good to Know

This is for the old-type exhaust configuration on early production tractors. Make sure to check your serial number—this fits tractors before serial number 117836. When installing, use a new exhaust manifold gasket and apply anti-seize compound to the bolts for easier removal down the road. Take your time getting the alignment right—a properly seated elbow prevents leaks that can damage other components or fill your cab with fumes.
