If the brakes are dry the seals are OK. You only need to worry if the rear end is leaking oil on them.

Here is what your brakes look like.

You take clip #22286 off and drive out pin #2333. Make sure you catch spacer #22218 when you remove shoe so you do not loose it. The right side will have 2 springs #2204 and the left side will only have 1. This is normal. You can buy a second spring for the left side like I did if you want as it helps with the pedal return. About $4.00 at NH dealer.

If you are going to work on this tractor you really need to get a Ford service manual. They are out of print now so you can find reprints on e-bay.

The parts are not cheep but you should be able to get them from your local NH dealer and save the shipping charges. NH can also sell you the springs and adjuster 1 by 1 incase you do not need the whole set. To give you a idea of the cost here is a on line seller.

Walts tractor parts
4 brake shoes $85.00
springs and adjusters for one wheel $48.00
