<p>Apple Cider Vinegar makes a good rust remover also. It will free
up bolts. They get real clean when you remove them. Usually look
black like they were blued..<br>

<div>Years ago when I got my 1948 John Deere A both brakes were
stuck tight and the guy I got it from had pulled the brakes
out so he could tow it from out in the woods where it had sat
for about 15 years up to his tool shed. He had bought that
farm and the JD A and an IH M were sitting in the woods. The
original owner had retired and later died.</div>
<div>I was not having any luck with heat and lube so I suspended
them down in a plastic barrel full of water and baking soda,
dropped in an anode bar and connected a battery charger to the
anode and to the wire suspending the brake units. I don't
recall polarity right now but you can Google it. I think I
left them in a couple of days and it worked perfectly except
it did remove most of the paint too. I lubed the splash holes
for the shafts and the pedal shafts and the brakes worked
fine. I highly recommend it.</div>
