My dad has a 40 john deere the most work it does is pulling a hay ride or a parade for the last month or so the left brake has been locking up the only way to get it loose is to back up. We took it apart today and can not find any problems. The disc were replaced in 1993 when my granddad restored the tractor. Any help with this problem would be apreceated .

thanks BIG JAKE

Any rust in there ? Maybe glazed up or oil and grease makeing them grab ? I would deglaze them with a sandblaster or a scotch brite in a die grinder Make sure no oil or grease on the faceings and I would lube up the balls between the plates with neverseez.

I would suspect the balls in the actuaters are not moving smoothly. Perhaps grease in the tracks. Also make sure springs are good .
