2 wheel drive Mitsubishi D1600
I have a bad brake on one side, but it looks like it is difficult to get to the brake shoes on my tractor. A little lever connects to the housing. No amount of rotating it applies the brake on the left side, but the right side is fine. So it's an internal part I have to look at. Does anyone know if this will work?
I thought maybe that Choice A might be needed if there is an axle nut and I have to pull a half-shaft at this point just to get to the brake.
I also have a bad seal on the same side of the tractor where the rotating brake mechanism penetrates the housing. I got a few pictures to look at. (YES, I took some pictures of the side that is good. I didn't know I was going to post these pictures about a brake until now.) This tractor has a drop-down axle rather than a straight shaft out from the rear end (see last picture), so it's a little different from the larger ones.

- Remove the rod (done)
- Drain the transmission (already done)
- Raise and block up the tractor
- Pull the wheel off
- Choice A: Remove the cover plate hiding the axle shaft and do something??
- Choice B: Do not Remove the cover plate hiding the axle shaft.
- Unbolt the brake housing from the machine and slide it out
- Hopefully now look at the brake and get whatever parts are broken from a site sponsor
