Still has the foot deccellerator. Brake pedals are made of stamped and welded sheet metal. Shifter is unusual too. The WD9 I brought in a couple of weeks ago had cast pedals and a more conventional shifter.
The later 9 series tractors all had the stamped & welded sheet metal brake pedals--I am not sure where the SN break was for those. The shifter isn't that unusual either. It is called a remote control gear shift and they were standard on the 9 series tractors with SN47256 and up....maybe optional before that. Almost all of the 9 series tractors in my area (Central Canada) have these features.
The disc brakes are interesting though......no mention of disc brakes in the parts manual for a WR-9, only band brakes. As far as I know, disc brakes only came on the WR-9S, Super WD-9, & Super WDR-9 which didn't come out until 1953. Disc & band brakes can't be swapped on a 9 series tractor due to the machining and drilling differences on the transmission housing that would be required to mount the disc brakes. Another possibility is that it may have gotten an entire transmission & differential swap from a newer tractor--but really unlikely (I have done it though--long story, I'll spare you the details).

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
