Martin 2,130 #3 Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) you can buy the material from mcmaster carr and save a bunch of $$$$$$...... i know it not ready to put on, but its much more reasonable that the oem cost....... heres some detail and a method of installing it. this is the way i did it, others have commented after my post with their opinions.......

daveoman1966 3,624 #5 Posted July 12, 2014 Cut an old leather belt of about 2" wide to a length that'll fit the inside of the metal brake band. Liberally apply an epoxy bonding agent (POR 15 is great) to glue the leather strip. Clamp over-night to let dry. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jdleach 525 #8 Posted July 13, 2014 I strongly concur with Craig's post above. There is nothing wrong with making your own lining, and if money is REAL tight, that is the way to go. That said, Bob Maynard is looking to go back into production of these linings since his agreement/contract with Tractor World is over. For my part, I try to purchase most of my parts from the members here on the forum. The benefit of doing such is manifold: 1. The quality is uniformly great. These guys make their products for their own tractors, as well as for sale. 2. None of them are getting rich doing it, but derive a tremendous pleasure in furthering the hobby. A little side cash made is certainly deserved. 3. The prices are very hard to beat. This goes along with number 3., I have never seen any "gouging", or inflated prices. They do try to make a little though, as rightly they should for their efforts. 4. They are forum members, and great people to deal with. NO ONE, have I ever have heard, got screwed by them. I am a 30 plus year toolmaker, and can make about any part on one of these tractors on my own. Outside of sheet metal, there isn't anything that I would find terribly difficult, only time consuming. That said, when it comes to the time when I will need a new lining, if Bob is back into production, I will get it from him. Ain't worth the time and headache to make it myself, and the price is dirt cheap. Hell, I own a complete machine shop, and will still buy it from Bob. My two Lincolns worth. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
