If you pull the final drives, it's really self explanatory. You can't go wrong.
Pull off the old brake band, put on the new ones.
the only hard part is lifting the final drives off and back on. They're pretty heavy. And the long drive axle can be a pain to align the splined end - but it eventually finds its way home.
I've done mine without a lift, but if you've got one available - you're back will thank you for using it. A cherry picker would be good.

It's not immediately obvious what it's going to do until you look at the front pivot pin on the front axle area - and realize the tipping point is to the side of the engine - not intuitive. Block the tractor up accordingly - the final drives have a huge effect on the balance.
