[Farmall] Need 340 Utility info & pictures

[Mike Sloane]

In reverse order, The brakes are very easy to fix - 6 bolts on each side 
of the tractor is all it takes to pull the housings, and the brake 
assemblies will (almost) fall out. Depending on how rusty and/or gunked 
up things are, you might have to do a little gentle persuasion. Brake 
disks are available from any Case IH dealer, and you will need 4 of 
them. I have done the job on my 340 in about an hour per side, but it 
was relatively clean. You also have to free up the threaded actuating 
rods and play with the adjustment so that both sides are somewhat equal. 
  If you need a page from the parts manual, send me a note "off-line".

As far as images, I will send you some off-line.
