Tried to get a lot of the gunk and grease and dirt off... Need to clean them some more, but not looking bad. I got the left brake actuator off today finally by drifting it off to the right with my bearing punch. It was seized on there pretty good. Cleaned it up with a wire wheel first and then set it suspended in the vice and let her rip with my nice hammer. Test fit my new shaft on the tractor. Some McMaster parts for pedal sleeving and some shims to go between the pedals to keep it night and tight! Here's the wear on the old shaft vs. the new (here's the left brake actuator that was stuck): Here's where the right brake has eaten up the shaft quite a bit... And with a hacksaw and a chisel, I got the bad piece of jam nut off this thing from last time. I ordered a new jam nut, as the threads here look fine (it had eaten the very last thread at the top by the head, which is no biggie). A slight score where my chisel over-travelled on the final blow, but I am pleased to salvage this. |

GG,
Good documentation and work. You will be very pleased with the results. I dont like the pedals flopping around either! Regards, Chris

Looking good! Well on your way to having a tractor that puts a smile on your face every time you jump on it.

Thanks Chris! I am excited to see how these tractors are when I get the pedals all fixed up. The right brakes on both WDs have dragged the fender ever since forever, haha. I almost wondered if they didn't come that way . And also glad I got a lot of shims and spacers so hopefully if stuff is "tighter" it will last a lot longer before it starts to wear again.
Thank you! I am really enjoying every time I get something fixed how much nicer it is to use. Fixing the front end last year was a major step forward.
