I cannot find my service manual and looking at parts.PDF is sketchy. Am I correct in assuming that if I:
Remove brake drums, shoes, and strip to back plate.
Remove (9) bolts from Axle retainer asembly.
Does the axle assemby slide out then?
If so, should I then carry the axle assemblies to Ford dealer to install new seals?
I have also read that fluid-soaked brake shoes can be cleaned and re-used? I am not trying to half-a** this tractor and will buy new shoes if required. I just cannot stand to operate something that isn't working properly.
