Allen,It's nice that you get to help your wife out with her gardening. My wife could care less about my tractors...lol

Today,
I decided to fix the brakes on my 1200 that has a wet brake rearend. In the last month or so,I began getting less and less then none. I took the fenders off and had a spare piece tom plug into the hole where the outer brake pad mounts and did the old pull it out and push the replacement piece with a good pad on into the hole. I then looked and seen my brake pad was disintegrated,but all in the cup. I did some reassembly and adjustments and now have better brakes than ever. It helped greatly having a spare wet brake rearend handy which I just drained all the fluid out to remove tons of water and I got nosey and looked at how things worked. I have to get some parts for thie spare rear like gaskets and outer seals,but I believe this will make a nice rear for my project tractor..
