Terex TA35 2008 Parts Catalog – Factory Specs for Your Articulated Truck

You pulled a transmission cooler line off a Terex TA35 yesterday and the hose you ordered from the aftermarket supply house was half an inch too short. The fittings didn’t match. Now the machine sits, the customer is calling, and your foreman is breathing down your neck. I’ve seen it happen a hundred times. That’s why you need the Terex TA35 2008 Parts Catalog – the actual factory book from Terex Equipment Limited, Motherwell, Scotland. 444 pages of OEM part numbers, exploded diagrams, and cross-references that keep you from wasting billable hours on wrong parts.

444 Pages of Factory Part Numbers

This isn’t a generic aftermarket list. Every page was printed from Terex’s own engineering data. Publication number 15503340, revised June 2008 to cover serial numbers A9171011 and above. The book is divided into major sections: Tractor, Tractor Optional, Trailer, Trailer Optional, and then the numbered sections like Section 100 – Chassis and Section 140 – Front Axle Group. You want the part number for a body hoist cylinder seal kit? That’s in Section 230 – Body Hoist System. The index at the front shows exactly which components fall under each section. No flipping through a hundred pages of irrelevant car stuff. Period.

Why OEM Part Numbers Beat Aftermarket Guesses

Aftermarket catalogs often group parts by “fits many models.” That’s a recipe for return counter arguments. The TA35 (G7 OCDB) uses a Detroit Diesel Series 60 engine mated to an Allison 4500 ORS R transmission. The front axle is not the same as a TA30 axle. The hydraulic lines have different banjo fitting sizes. I’ve had a guy bring me a brake caliper piston seal that said “Terex TA35” on the box but was actually from a TA40 – the bore was 2 mm larger. The factory catalog lists each part with its specific application and a line drawing. You look up “BRAKE GROUP – FRONT AXLE” in Section 140, you get the exact seal dimensions and the Terex part number. No guesswork.

SECTION 100 – Chassis: Frame Components and Hardware

Chassis section covers the frame rails, crossmembers, engine mounts, radiator bracket, and all the hardware that holds the cab and dump body together. The exploded diagrams show every bolt, washer, and spacer – with part numbers that cross directly to Terex dealer stock. If you’re replacing a cracked frame crossmember on a TA35 that’s been overloaded, you need the exact bracket part number and the torque specs for the bolts. The catalog gives you the part number, but the torque values come from the service manual. Pair this parts catalog with the TEREX TA35 TA40 G7 Maintenance Manual for the full picture.

Front Axle and Body Hoist – Common Failure Points

Articulated trucks take abuse on the front axle and hoist system. Section 140 shows the front axle group: knuckles, steering cylinders, tie rods, brake assemblies. The TA35 has a specific axle ratio and bearing set. If you order a front axle seal kit from a generic supplier, it might not have the correct O-ring for the kingpin. I’ve seen hoist cylinders that cavitate because the wrong snap ring was installed – Section 230 has the exact ring dimensions and part number for the body hoist cylinder head. Use the factory book and stop reordering parts.

3 Reasons to Trust Terex’s Own Documentation

First, the warranty. Terex covers genuine parts for six months or 1,000 hours – but only if you use the OEM part number from this catalog. Aftermarket substitutes void that coverage. Second, the drawings are full-scale scans of Terex engineering prints, not redrawn clip art. You can measure bolt spacing from the diagram. Third, every part number is verified against the current production line – the manual was revised up to June 2008, so you’re not getting obsolete numbers. For more background on why OEM documentation matters in heavy equipment, see the Automotive Industry Overview on manufacturing standards.

Who Needs This 444-Page Catalog?

Any shop that services Terex TA35 articulated trucks. Fleet mechanics who stock spare parts. DIY owners who rebuild their own dump bodies. The book is a companion to the repair manual – you use the repair manual to figure out how to disassemble, then flip to this parts catalog to get the correct replacement part number before you order. No more calling Terex dealer with “uh, the thingy on the left side.” You hand them page reference and part number. Related manuals you should have on hand: TEREX TA25 TA27 TA30 TA35 TA40 Glass Parts Catalog for window and windshield glass orders, and the Terex TA35 Parts Catalog (this same book) if you need a second copy for the truck.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a service manual or a parts catalog?

Parts catalog. It lists every OEM part with diagrams – no repair procedures. Use it alongside the maintenance manual for torque specs and assembly steps.

Does it cover the TA35 G7 with Detroit Diesel Series 60?

Yes. The serial number range A9171011 and above is specifically covered. Includes the Allison 4500 ORS R trans.

Can I use this manual for a TA30?

No. The TA30 has a different axle group and hoist dimensions. Order the TA30 version.

How do I find a part number for a body hoist cylinder seal kit?

Go to Section 230 – Body Hoist System. Find the exploded view of the hoist cylinder, locate the seal kit group, and copy the Terex part number. Cross-check with the index to confirm you’re on the correct page. If you still can’t find it, call Terex dealer with the serial number.
