I think you miss understood the issue. A 1955 rear end is heavier in a lot of places compared to the 1855. A 2-105 is similar to a 1955 which is about the same power. If you wonder about the 2-85 never had the cover off of one so I have no clue. I was gone from the dealership about a month before the introduction of the 2-135 & 155 series. That is a completely different rear end. Remember it has inboard plantaries. The boy has a 90 + horse power tractor. It does no heavy work, maybe 3-4 days a year on a 18 foot field cultivator other than that we mow ditches and spread fertilizer, pull wagons, etc. Ground speed is probably 5-6 mile an hour on the field cultivator so torque loads on the final drives are fairly light. In a case like that the 1855 rear end would hold up on the 1955, but weight it down and pull it with a larger load in a lower gear like second and the torque load on the gears goes up. Remember if horsepower stays the same and ground speed goes down torque loads are increased on the drive line.

I'll just say this,when I bought my 2-135,I was looking for a 2-105. Everybody at the dealership,even the guy who delivered it,said I would like the 135 a lot better. Said it had a vastly better transmission and rearend. In fact,when I asked the dealer if he would give me any kind of warranty,he said yes,on the transmission and rearend,but not on the motor.Not that the motor is a problem either,just that the trans and rearend are about bullet proof.
