Hi Bobby see following:

The brakes can be fixed by disassembling, cleaning ramps & rollers and scuffing the glaze off the surface of the disks.

Another trick is to reseal the brake drums to the gearcase with some silicone to keep the water out on the right side and the oil out on the left side if you have aux hydraulic valves.
