NAA brake springs

Jthomas1970 · Mar 22, 2013

I'm currently changing the brake shoes on my 1954 NAA. When I took them apart, I only had two brake shoe springs per side. I noticed the hardware kits that are for sale have a total of four shoe springs per side. My question is: am I missing two springs per side? If so, where do they go? Does anyone have an exploded view of the brake shoes and springs in place? I have looked in my manuals, but they don't show enough detail. Thanks in advance for the help.

The NH site shows only three springs. Not sure if the NAA is like the XX0 series that had one less spring on one side. See the link below. It shows a diagram. Your kit may have application to more than one tractor.

The description for the spring labelled as part number 9 in the NAA parts drawing says:

"Spring Brake Shoe Secondary, LH brake only. Years: 01-JAN-53-31-DEC-54"

So it looks like the NAA has 2 on the right and three on the left like the hundred series.

They are set up the same as a 8N... The extra spring is to compensate for the extra peddle weight on the left side... I always install the extra spring on both sides...

This is the only pix I have
