Hi everyone :)
Last year I made my first posts on the forum about trying to fix the brakes on a homemade tractor my Grandfather built in the early '80s.
I'm not someone who is very mechanically inclined, but with your help I managed to replace the wheel cylinders and get the brakes working again.
While they worked, they didn't work very well. For a summer project this year, I decided to go back into the drums see if the shoes also needed replacing. Once inside the drum, I discovered everything was coated with a small amount of oil.
Unfortunately, this is where my shallow expertise falters. I'm not sure what would be causing the leak. I have some photos of the axle, the hub, and the bearings. If anyone has any advice on what needs replacing/fixing, it would be much appreciated.
