Don't feel bad Jim I pulled a similar one in my 970 a few years back. I was hauling a load of manure to a farm a few miles away. I had just adjusted the brakes and taken a shim out of both sides. Smelled that all too familiar hot brake smell about the time I got to where I was going, got them too hot and glazed them, no brakes... I thought I could get home safely just by being careful and using the powershift, it was all good and fine till the fuel strainer on the lift pump plugged up when pulling a good hill.
