Jb weld is great stuff,but melts at around 400 degrees. A few years ago I had a pully come loose on the combine,worn enough so the pully and shaft had a very loose fit. I used JB weld to mount the worn parts,which worked perfect all through harvest. After harvest I wanted to replace the worn parts,so put a puller on the pully and tried to remove it,pulled all I dared without breaking the large puller,with no success. Heated the pulley just hot enough so the paint was starting to burn.I put on a pair of welding gloves and easily pulled the pully off by hand as though is was sliding on grease.

Now picture, your going down that steep hill with a heavy load behind the tractor,at the bottom of the hill is a T intersection with bumper to bumper traffic moving at 60 mph. At what point on the hill do you suspect the brake shoes will get hot enough to melt that JB weld?
