From the beginning of production, disk brakes were available as an option. The brakes were made by Lambert Company and are similar, but different than the disk brakes on the Super and later series. The Lambert brakes have three bolts holding the housing to the transmission case. I believe the brakes on the Super Series use 6 bolts. I have an MD with the Lambert brakes. I saw an M sell at auction last fall that had them. It sold at a small premium because it had the disk brakes. At least the quy that bought it told me that he would not have paid that for it except it had those brakes. It was rough, and as I recall it brought $1500. I've also seen a few on the internet for sale that have these brakes. I needed a part for one of mine, and finally found it from a salvage yard, but it was not easy to find. You can still buy the disks from IH. The disks on the Super series don't fit, the splines are different. Sorry this got so long, and I have no idea how many H and M tractors had these brakes, just that there are not many. One Salvage dealer near me had not even heard of them.
