In Reply to: Brake Locking on Super M posted by Buckskintractor on November 19, 2009 at 17:10:52:
Only doing one side will cause uneven braking, but it will NOT cause the one good brake to LOCK UP so tight that you have to back the tractor.
You need to machine down the brake drum to compensate for the machining done to the actuators. Knock the mounting surface of the brake drum down by the same amount as what you took off both sides of the actuator combined first. See if that helps. If not take a little more off at a time until things improve.
trulyred is right, the actuators are opening too far, because there's too much clearance inside there.
You can send your drum and actuator off to OEM tractor parts, and they will get everything in spec for you. It's not cheap but maybe cheap insurance to know that it will work when you get it back?
