Sorry for the loaded question. I am restoring a Farmall H and it has disc brakes and have not found any info on them. The internals look like a Super H but the outside is only bolted on with 3 bolts. Is this rare? I have went to a couple of junk yards and they have only heard of them but never seen them.

Also I have a frontend that has pegs coming through the dust caps. I was told it was for a corn picker so the nose would turn.

And last my grandpa parked a 2 row mounted corn planter and everything is still there except the fertilizer boxes which were taken off to be stored and now can"t find. It is mounted in front of the rear tires, not the rear mount type. If anybody has a model # or knows where I could get a manual and fertilizer boxes I would appreciate it. Thanks.
 
We had a mounted 2ME model corn picker thar the center snout mounted to those pegs on the front spindels and that made the center snout steerable. When in the mud two men could remove that snout in 5 min. to clean mud from the front wheels. I want to think the model 24 picker(if it could be called that) had that steerable snout. Armand
 
These were a parts field improvement pkg from IH, they were made by AUSCO Co. I believe there is a parts list in the H parts book, I dont have access to one right now, in the rear of book, attachments section, last Hs mfgd had Super H brakes, very rare tractor, easy to spot AUSCO, had a large splined hub on the 2 friction discs, mating hub was keyed on brake shaft internally, had splines on outside for disc, large tapered spring on linkage. M was available too, just bigger pieces. 368981R91 or 368983R91 was disc part #, cant remember which was H or M. Planter would be 40/50s, 34HMxx ? maybe. I was in parts for 47 years, IH then CaseIH, then CNH.
 
I missed the middle of the question, these were called steerable snoots, available on 34HM20 & 34HM24, 2M, 2ME. A lot of equipment was numbered beginning with 34HM-, it meant was for 300/400/H/M series tractors.
 
Thanks a lot for the replies, everybody I talk to around here looks at me like I'm lost and argues with me that I have a Super H, instead of the the shaft being keyed it has splines on both the inside and outside where the pads slide on.
 

The brakes are Osco-Lambert, and the parts are obsolete from Case-IH. I recently removed a dis-functional and broken set from my 1950 H, and replaced them with the original style band brakes. The band brakes work a whole lot better than the disk brakes EVER did.
