Default MF 1135 or 2640 pros/cons

Looking at a couple MF tractors to pull 5 x 6 round balers and mow and rake. One is a 2640 the other a 1135. Anything a guy should be looking out for> The 1135 has 1500 hours on overhaul and has new brakes and hydraulic pump rebuild. 2640 has less hp, but new tires and low hours. I might buy both but one to make sure both have the hydraulics capablity and they are know for sound engines. Thought I heard once 2640 have engine problems and one guy told me 1135 spin bearings. So wondering what you guys think.
TIA.

Two very different tractors...The 1135 has the power but that engine is a troublesome beast to say the least but the 2640 is a different ball game..good 3654 engine, still pre electronics of the 2005 series and a far nicer place to spend a day and a far more useable tractor.....Just check the tranny and the HI/lo in the 2640 ..a few gave trouble..?

Whoops read that too fast and was referring to the V8 in the 1155 for the bad motor......Nothing wrong with any of the perkins 3654's Still the 2640 is a much better tractor i had a FWA at 14'000hrs ..a 2680 was one of the best masseys ever..!
