Hi guys, I've got a Farmall H I've had for 20+ years, and it's about time I put some brakes on it. Is anyone selling just the linings for the original bands? I'd rather not spend $100+ on brake bands right now. If I could come up with some linings I'd reline the original bands myself. Any ideas?

I replaced the brakes on my H when I rebuilt it, though I don't recall spending that kind of money on them. I guess they went up quite a bit in the last 10 years. You could try looking for a set of good used ones from a tractor salvage yard, or online from a salvage place. I don't know of anyone selling just the brake material, though if you have anyone around that rebuilds clutches or things like that, they may be able to rebuild them for you.

Thanks guys. Country Boy, I did a quick on-line check and it looked like the cheapest pair was a little over $100.
