HiTorque 120ftlb PTO Clutch 5215-36 5215-114 for Select John Deere Sabre 2048HV

Overview

This HiTorque 120 ft-lb electric PTO clutch is a heavy-duty aftermarket replacement for the Warner-style clutch path identified by 5215-36, 5215-56, and the updated Warner service number 5215-114.

This clutch is used on select John Deere, Sabre, and Scotts lawn tractors originally equipped with the matching Warner-style clutch. Related John Deere application numbers include AM118970, AM123285, and AM130328, but those John Deere numbers are also associated with Ogura-style clutch installations.

Built with a 1-inch crankshaft bore, approximately 5.345-inch pulley diameter, counter-clockwise rotation, and an upgraded billet pulley design, this clutch provides strong torque transfer and dependable mower deck engagement under demanding conditions.

Fitment warning: Do not order by the John Deere part number or mower model alone. Inspect the original clutch for a Warner number and compare the clutch body, wire leads, pulley, mounting arrangement, and retaining bolt before ordering.

Important Warner vs Ogura Fitment Warning

John Deere used more than one clutch supplier within the AM118970, AM123285, and AM130328 replacement path. Some tractors were equipped with a Warner-style clutch, while others received an Ogura-style clutch.

This listing is specifically led by the Warner 5215-36 / 5215-56 / 5215-114 configuration. An Ogura-equipped tractor may use a different retaining-bolt length even when the bore, pulley diameter, and rotation appear compatible.

• Inspect the original clutch for a Warner or Ogura marking
• Compare the overall clutch height and crankshaft engagement depth
• Confirm the retaining bolt does not bottom out in the crankshaft
• Never use a longer bolt that bottoms out before securely clamping the clutch
• Compare the wire leads, terminals, anti-rotation bracket, and pulley offset

If your original clutch is marked Ogura, see the AM130328 Ogura-style PTO clutch replacement before ordering.

Aftermarket Cross-Reference Numbers

• Xtreme: X0504, X0515, X0162, X0162-K
• Stens: 255-246X, 255-247X, 255-585, 255-585X

Aftermarket catalogs sometimes consolidate OEM numbers that were originally supplied in more than one physical design. Use the original Warner number and product dimensions as the primary fitment confirmation.

Important Fitment Check

• Match the original clutch to Warner 5215-36, 5215-56, or 5215-114
• Confirm the crankshaft uses a 1-inch bore
• Verify approximately 5.345-inch pulley diameter
• Confirm counter-clockwise rotation from the pulley side
• Compare the electrical leads and terminal ends
• Compare the anti-rotation bracket and cable-exit position
• Verify pulley offset, stack height, and belt alignment
• Confirm the correct retaining-bolt length for the installed clutch style
• Do not confuse this clutch with Warner 5215-13
• Do not confuse it with the 1-1/8-inch Warner 5215-44 path

Important 2254HV, 2554HV and S2554 Warning

Do not order this clutch for a Sabre 2254HV, Sabre 2554HV, or Scotts S2554 based only on the model name. These tractors are also documented with the different AM119536 / Warner 5215-44 clutch path, which commonly uses a 1-1/8-inch bore. Confirm the original clutch number and crankshaft size first.

FAQ

Does this PTO clutch replace Warner 5215-36?

Yes. This is a heavy-duty aftermarket replacement for Warner 5215-36. It also replaces Warner 5215-56 and the updated Warner service number 5215-114.

Does this clutch replace John Deere AM130328?

It replaces AM130328 in select applications originally equipped with the matching Warner-style clutch. Because AM130328 is also associated with Ogura-style installations, inspect the original clutch and confirm the retaining-bolt requirements before ordering.

Does it fit the John Deere Sabre 2048HV?

It fits select Sabre 2048HV tractors originally equipped with the Warner-style AM123285/AM130328 clutch. Because Ogura clutches were also used within this application family, the complete model number alone is not sufficient to identify the original clutch style.

Can a Warner-style clutch replace an Ogura clutch?

The two designs may share the same basic bore, pulley, and rotation specifications in certain John Deere applications, but installation details can differ. In particular, an Ogura-equipped tractor may require a shorter retaining bolt when installing the Warner-style replacement. Confirm stack height and bolt engagement before installation.

Is Warner 5215-13 the same clutch?

No. Warner 5215-13 has a 6-inch pulley, clockwise rotation, and reverse mounting. It is not interchangeable with Warner 5215-36.

What bore size does this clutch use?

This clutch uses a 1-inch crankshaft bore. Confirm the crankshaft size before ordering.

What rotation does this clutch use?

This clutch uses counter-clockwise rotation when viewed from the pulley side.

Is this a genuine Warner or John Deere clutch?

No. This is a premium aftermarket replacement designed to match the listed Warner-style clutch specifications.

Can PTO Direct USA help confirm fitment?

Yes. Send your complete mower model number, serial number, original clutch number, and clear photos to support@ptodirectusa.com. Include photos of the pulley, bore, wire leads, anti-rotation bracket, and original retaining bolt.
