Short answer: Used tractor parts mostly come from farm equipment salvage yards and ag parts dismantlers, not car junkyards. Abilene Machine in Kansas, All States Ag Parts and Burch Store Tractors in North Carolina all say on their own websites that they sell used tractor parts. Have the model and serial number ready before you call. Our own directory is thin here: 8 of 3,629 published listings have a tractor, farm, equipment or ag parts name, and only one of those has a website saying it sells used tractor parts.
Last checked: November 1, 2026. What each business sells comes from its own website. Counts and listings come from our directory.
Why don't car junkyards have tractor parts?
A car yard is built around cars and light trucks, with stock sorted by year, make and model. Farm tractors go by model and serial number instead of the 17-digit VIN on a road car, the castings can weigh more than a person can lift, and very few parts carry over from a car. A general yard might have an old tractor at the back of the lot, but you can't plan a repair around that. Call a yard that buys farm machines for parts.
Which businesses sell used tractor parts?
We read each of these sites. Claims about size are theirs, and we have not checked them.
| Business | What its site says | Warranty and shipping |
|---|---|---|
| Abilene Machine, Kansas | Used parts for John Deere tractors and combines, plus Case IH, New Holland, International and others. Says its salvage yard is one of the largest single sites in the US | One-year warranty on used parts. Says engines get a dynamometer test |
| All States Ag Parts, based in De Soto, Iowa | New, used and remanufactured tractor and combine parts for all makes, including antique brands. Lists 18 locations, 15 in the US and 3 in Canada | One-year warranty, excluding uses such as tractor pulling and construction work |
| Burch Store Tractors, Burlington, North Carolina | A farm equipment salvage yard that specializes in row crop IH Farmall tractors. Says it has listed only a fraction of the parts on hand | Ships most orders the same day. Freight is by quote, so ask |
All States' locator separates salvage yards from retail stores, but the list we could read does not mark which is which, so ask before you drive to one.
For a search beyond one company, try TractorHouse, a machinery marketplace. Search results show a dismantled machines section there, but the site blocked our tools, so we could not read it.

Are there tractor salvage yards in our directory?
Very few. Of 3,629 published listings, seven have tractor, farm or equipment in the name, one more has ag parts, and the directory has no tractor or farm category. One of the eight, Indiana Automotive Equipment, links to a company that sells vehicle lifts, so it is no use here. The other seven are below.
| Listing | Location | What we could confirm |
|---|---|---|
| All States Ag Parts | Lake Mills, IA | Its site says it sells used tractor parts |
| Weller Tractor Salvage | Great Bend, KS | Calls itself one of the largest heavy equipment salvage yards in the Midwest. Its home page does not mention farm tractors. Ask |
| Kansas Tractor Parts | Great Bend, KS | Links only to a Facebook page we could not read. The description of the video above calls it a heavy equipment salvage yard. Ask |
| Case Combine Parts | Dixon, IL | No website. The name says new aftermarket and rebuilt, not used |
| Crest Auto Truck & Equipment | Cartersville, GA | Its site lists heavy and medium duty truck parts, not tractors |
| Voyles Equipment | Parkin, AR | Links only to a Facebook page we could not read. Ask |
| Reeds Farm | Wittmann, AZ | Links to a third-party page we could not read. Ask |
For a truck, see our semi truck junkyard page. Otherwise, our junkyard search finds general yards near you, and one call is worth a minute. Ask who locally parts out farm machinery.
Which used tractor parts are worth buying?
Abilene Machine's list of popular used parts is a fair start: axle housings and other castings, cabs, crankshafts, blocks and heads, hydraulic pumps, sheet metal, wheel weights, tires and rims, and transmission and PTO parts.
| Part | Used? | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Axle housings, transmission cases, other castings | Yes, often the best buy | Cracks, welded repairs, stripped threads, broken mounting ears |
| Rims, wheel weights, hoods, fenders, cabs | Yes | Rust, bent mounts, cracks around bolt holes, exact fit for your model |
| Transmission and PTO gears | Yes, with a look first | Chipped or pitted teeth. Ask for photos |
| Hydraulic pumps, engines, blocks, heads | With a warranty | Ask what was tested, the return terms, and any core charge |
| Seals, gaskets, filters, bearings | Buy new | They wear or dry out, and new ones cost little by comparison |
