When your John Deere tractor needs repairs, you’ve got options—and you don’t need to pay dealer prices to get quality parts. While OEM parts get the spotlight, aftermarket and used parts often deliver the same reliability at a much better value.

At Green Spring Tractor, we stock all three:

• OEM parts from trusted brands like ZF, Dana Spicer, and Carraro—the same suppliers that build components for John Deere.

• A wide range of high-quality aftermarket parts that make up the bulk of our inventory.

• And carefully inspected used parts that are ideal for older tractors or budget-conscious repairs.

We also carry many new parts for newer and current John Deere models—so whether you’re working on a late-model machine or an older workhorse, we’ve got the right parts to keep you running.

Every new part we sell comes with a one-year warranty, and all our parts—new or used—are carefully inspected before they leave our shelves.

OEM vs Aftermarket vs Used: What’s the Difference?

Here’s how it breaks down:

• OEM parts are built to John Deere’s specs and carry the Deere name—but often come with a higher price.

• Aftermarket parts are made by independent manufacturers, designed to match or exceed OEM standards—usually at a much lower cost.

• Used parts are salvaged, inspected, and tested—a cost-effective option for older equipment or less critical systems.

At Green Spring Tractor, we carry OEM brands when it makes sense, but the majority of our inventory is aftermarket and used parts because they deliver the best value without compromising quality. Plus, we’re stocked with plenty of new parts for newer and current John Deere models, so whatever you need—we can help.

Why Aftermarket (and Used) Makes Sense

1. Save Money Without Sacrificing Quality

Many of the aftermarket parts we sell are made by the same companies that build OEM components. You’re getting the same performance without the OEM markup.

For older machines, or when you need to stretch your budget, used parts can be a smart solution. We thoroughly inspect and test all used components to ensure they’re ready to work.

And for newer models, we offer new aftermarket parts specifically designed for modern John Deere tractors—so whether you’re maintaining recent models or classic equipment, you’re covered.

2. Strict Quality Control

We don’t stock the cheap, unreliable parts you’ll find elsewhere.

• Every aftermarket part we sell is vetted, tested, and backed by a one-year warranty.

• All used parts are inspected and tested—only parts that meet our standards make it onto our shelves.

We stand behind what we sell, whether it’s new aftermarket, OEM, or used.

3. Parts for Every Tractor and Every Budget

Whether you’re running a newer model or keeping an older John Deere working, we’ve got the parts:

• New parts for current models—OEM and aftermarket.

• Used parts for older models—carefully inspected and tested.

• Aftermarket parts that meet or exceed OEM standards.

This gives you flexibility to choose the right part for the right repair—without overpaying.

Performance, Durability, and Warranty

We’ve seen aftermarket and used parts perform just as well as OEM when they’re properly made and inspected. The key is working with a supplier like Green Spring Tractor that knows what works and what doesn’t.

And when it comes to warranty:

• OEM parts usually come with a 12-month warranty.

• All new aftermarket parts from us come with the same one-year warranty.

• Used parts are inspected and tested—and we stand behind what we sell.

If you ever have an issue, we’ll work with you to make it right.

Cost Savings: Why It Adds Up

OEM parts cost more. That’s a fact.

• Aftermarket parts often cost 30-50% less—without sacrificing performance.

• Used parts? Even more affordable, making them ideal for older tractors or budget-focused repairs.

For routine maintenance, non-critical repairs, or keeping older equipment running strong, aftermarket and used parts often deliver the best value.

When OEM Still Makes Sense

There are situations where OEM is the better choice:

• Critical systems like electronic controls, precision guidance, or when your equipment is under factory warranty.

But for most mechanical repairs, maintenance items, and older machines, aftermarket or used parts are the smart move—giving you the reliability you need without the dealer price tag.
