The balls & plates just shine them up with finer emery cloth, also pockets in brake housings on tractor, keep the rust off metal parts by mix of dry graphite & oil, smear it on carefully in pockets & balls, locater pads in drum and housing. Check the splines for notches were the discs sit on brake shaft, if severe take die grinder and smooth down sharp corners.
