Ok on my 8n I am fixing the brakes and noticed that the right side only has two springs and the left has three. Is that correct or is the right side missing a return spring? Thanks once again for all your expertise.

Cody,You don't have a missing spring on the right side.The reason for the extra spring on the left side is to accommodate for the extra linkages on the left brake petal.
 
thank you everyone I knew it was a smart choice to ask that question on this form. I am new to these forms and I can honestly say I love them. So much better than making a few phone calls to trying get a hold of one of my buddies grandpas that can tell me this is much faster thank you guys.

Its OK to use 3 springs on both sides, I do. Its also OK to use NEW hardware its cheap compared to a re-do are brakes that don't function properly...

I agree, I like that. Sure could use that thing to tear up the ground for the garden lol.
 
After redoing my brakes about 6/7 years ago , they work very well! Both sides will lock up when the pedals are pushed down while in motion or independently. Oil is kept out of the shoe area with double seals on each side of the rear wheel bearing . Lubrication is accomplished by removing a small flat screw in the bottom of the axle housing(trumpet)and pumping grease right into the bearing in each rear wheel. I also have 3 springs on each side. In order to accomplish proper adjustment I welded up the cam faces on each shaft and carefully ground down the welds where they contact the shoes. There is no "slop' or "lost motion".
 
Neighbor had the ford dealer repair the brakes on his 9n -- the new ones didn't work a darn bit better than the old ones. this was in the early 1960's. GOOD luck
 
At least mine wouldn't cause you to fly over the steering wheel.
That's quite an impressive tool.
Suitable for a cat 2 tractor.
Was that built to be part of a box blade or something?
 
No UD the scarifier was made that way in fact you can attach a back blade or a york rake to the other brackets to use behind the scarifiers.
