I pulled the dust cover off the right break drum on my 32 F-20 and it was covered with grease. The nut was not not on the drum, and it came off with ease. Inside and on the brakes Grease was everywhere. I finally got it cleaned up good enough to see things, and removed the brakes. Looking around, I noticed the drum shaft had a 1in in and out play, and a tiny bit of sideways play. Im assuming a bearing is going out. If so, what do I do to replace it? Also, I notice a 1in recess around the shaft to the back plate around 3/8ths away from the shaft/ Did packing go in there? If so, which way would be right to rewind it in replacing it? Thanks for the help.

pretty common to find the drum loose. lots of them have a special locking nut to help keep them tight. IH used a lot of felt seals. Most anything would work. You can still buy rope packing. But it sounds like you may have a bearing problem too. Once you get the retainer off the whole shaft should slide right out. Can't remember I think the bearing stays in the housing and you may have to use some kind of puller. i am writing from memory and a poor memory at that. But I do have a lot of F20s around and should have parts if you need them.

Thanks for the post and the offer. Right now im cannabalizing a stuck 37 for spare parts, but I am gonna need a few more parts, one of the cable guides on the rail, a air cleaner down to the carb right off the top of my head. Is that shaft supposed to slide back and forth, or is it when the drum is bolted with the nut on it that it holds it in place where its supposed to be? My other question is, with alla that grease in the brake drum housing, why did the bearing go out in the first place?

can't help you on the brake issue. I do have a 38' F20 though, and DAMN if that tranmission does not growl like a cement mixer. Good lord those old machines are cantankerous.
