Gentlemen,
I replaced my right brake. I purchased the new brake lining from OEM Tractor. It is a bonded lining (no rivets). I have read on this form where some of the guys have had problems with separation on this type of brake lining. Is it common for the new brake lining to drag? Do you have to wear in a new brake lining?
To change gear lube in the final drives, do you drop the bottom pan? Is there a fill level? Are new gaskets available or do you have to make them?
Thanks,
Dan N.E. Ohio

Thanks Guys,
I thought that I had read here where someone else had the problem of a new brake draging and the advice was to ware it in? When I say draging, I can turn the wheel by hand with the tractor jacked up off the floor. The other wheel turns easily where the wheel with the new brake band turns kind of hard and stops as soon as you let go. What could the problem be? I have the pin that retains the brake band in the correct position and oriented correctly. It drags even with the ajustment rod disconnected. Any further thoughts?

Dan, I believe that amount of drag is normal. You can run the new brake in by driving around with light to moderate pressure applied to the pedal. It shouldn't take much to wear it in. You will probably also want to try to adjust the other brake to even them up so that when they are latched together, they will brake the same.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
