It isnt hard just taking apart is the big chore. After jackong up remove the center part and rear wheel in one unit.It goes better if you have acherry picker as the final drive is heavy. You can reline the bands with linning and rivets or get new bands at around40.00 ea. You should replace both seals one on the tranny and the other on the final drive. So you need two bands and 4 seals. Ive done several so its easy for me.

Changing them isn't hard, it's getting to them that's the pain. You will have to securely support the rear of the tractor, wedge the front end and remove the final drives. While your in there, plan on changing the differential shaft seals, or your new brakes will be coated with oil before long. I would pick up an I&T manual (IH-8 ) from Tractor Supply or Binder Books, because it has exploded drawings. Also, it is very common for the right brake mounting casting to be worn out, which lets the pedal flop sideways and not pull on the brake. OEM Tractor Parts has new castings, or you can have yours bored out and brass bushing pressed into it by a local machine shop. The shaft may need repair as well. Be careful with the rear end off the ground, I would do one side at a time. See the wedges below Figure 51 A.

There not hard just time consuming, you have to remove the final drives off the trans/diff to be able to acess the breaks.

One note i would check you serial number becaues they didnt make a Super A in 46 not till 47 was it in production, but would be the same procedure never the less.

Good Luck Andrew
