I purchased manuals so i would not have to bug you fellows with the simple stuff. yeah, i've misplaced them.
1939 B S# under 66,000. when i removed the right hand brake for rebuilding it had full length band material (eight rivet holes). when i removed the left hand brake shoe which is identical except it has only six rivet holes. should the shoes have a long and short pad per side (maybe the rebuilder before me put two long and two shorts together) or what? the band material i got from JD has only long (eight rivet) pads in the kit. i'm tempted to drill the extra two holes. but thought i had better get some good help. Thanks for any help.

I rebuilt a 38 B last winter and it had original
shoes in it one was long an one was short, a primary and secondary shoe. I don't remember which way they went you could look at rear brakes on a car or truck and find out, remember the direction of rotation of the drums makes a diffrence. I think the Deere pn was changed from the origonal also.

rhudson, J.D. uses single plane brakes (no leading/trailing shoe) & therefor doesn't use a short & long lining. Most I have seen use 8 rivets so the 6 hole shoe you have is either mis-drilled, incorrect or the holes are filled with rust or rivet. It won't hurt to drill new holes for the extra rivets. I have drilled new holes many times when the old holes are elongated or to add extra rivets to reinforce a cracked lining.

I replaced the linings on my 41 B this year. I bought the kit with rivets. However I was advised not to use rivets, but to epoxy the linings to the shoe. I did this and it worked fine. I had to cut the linings short because they rubbed the drum. Also putting a bevel on each end of the linings would be helpful. I have a picture that I could send you of mine, to show you what it looks like.
