Tis, I just finished the brakes on my H ,same business as an M. If the brakes are not siezed they should pry off with a screwdriver after you remove the 5 bolts. You may need brass bushing for the ends of the brake shaft if they are worn. The Red pretty well summed it up,but I only put one new seal on each side. My I-H dealer told me to install them flush to the housing. I believe a new seal is probably a better seal than the old leather and spring jos that were in there. I had one side siezed and it took us almost 3 hours to get it off by prying, and trying to turn the brake band lever shaft while soaking penetrating oil to it. I was afraid we were never going to get it off but finally it moved. The drums slid off fairly easily, but getting those old seals out was something else...about an hour each. I picked out as much as I could and collapsed the seal toward the centre with a punch,you'll figure it out,be patient and don't damage the bearing house or the spline..it takes time. My I-H dealer gave me a picture of the brake assembly and the list of parts making up all components of the brakes..a nice help! Good luck and we're all here to help if you get stuck..Mike in Exeter,Ontario

I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
