Here are some pics from when I redid the brakes on my 560. They are same thing, just a little bigger. Mine were so bad on both sides tht I had to turn the two sides of the expander and the housing castings in a lathe to get a smooth surfce again. Only difference between these and the ones on your 340 is size, for example 560 expanders have 5 ramps and balls, where 340s only have 3. Use a large screwdriver or pliers to pry the springs of the expanders being careful not to ruin them, unless your already planning to replace them. Than clean out all the ramps with a wire brush to remove any rust, dirt, etc. Also if the balls are pitted or worn real bad you just as well replace them. Once its all cleaned up put em back together and reinstall the springs. Also be sure the housings are still relatively smooth/evenly worn. And if you do need to replace the disks it is best to get them trhough a CaseIH dealer, better quality, longer life.
