No, this is all new to me. I'm kinda scared to tear into something (especially when it works) without knowing I got some parts available to put it back together since I need to move some hay bales every so often. Nights and weekends are the only times I can work on it and it sits outside in the cold and bad weather.
If it is a matter of removing the five bolts and looking without everything falling on the ground, then I will do so. I kinda thought the housing and cover were all one piece but I see from the parts diagram that the cover comes off separately.
I see the shims in the diagram but they are out by the outer brake disk and cover but there aren't any shims by the inner brake disk. I've replaced drum and disk brakes on cars and pickups but I don't see how these work. I guess somehow those actuating disks are like rotors and they turn and expand against the brake disks. Looks like it could be a ten minute job but I wouldn't bet the farm when I've never done it before.
Another question is do the actuating disks (like rotors) ever need to be turned smooth like you do with a car?
