Hate to be the one to say it, but if the brakes were badly worn overall, that's what will happen if you only do one side. If you can't slack off the good brake and tighten the worn one to get them in balance, it only folllows that one side of the tractor will stop faster and harder than the other.
That and having the splined shaft clean, with nothing more than a touch (maybe! at most!) of graphite is to be preferred to an oily or greasy lube, which will only accumulate dirt and cause the discs and plates in the middle to bind on the shaft. Next time you open them up, clean that shaft and the internal splines on the moving parts with a brake cleaner. They're normal operation will be better dry than gummed up.
Other than that, it may also be, if you had the cover planed down, that they took too much off and there isn't room for the discs to float.
