The 35 and 38 have the same knives and shearbar and the cutterhead turns the same RPM. The early 38 has lighter feedroll driveshafts, they will swap with the ones on a 35. Probably 90% of the parts will swap, I used to do it often when I had a breakdown. Later 38s, like my dads, had heavier driveparts. I would rate the 35 and early 38 as equal and later 38 as a heavier machine. The 34 had no seperate blower and blew with the knives. OK in corn but not good for haylage. I'm going to disagree with NY986, I think the 35 was introduced and replaced the 34 about the time the 3800 (with the improved "J knife" cutterhead) replaced the late 38. If your looking for a chopper I'd move up to a 3940, much easier to adjust the shearbar.
