JERSEYHAWG / Glenn 4,498 #2 Posted February 22, 2015 Adam, do you need the whole brake band assembly or just a new lining? Glenn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKincer 6 #3 Posted February 23, 2015 Adam, I needed to replace the break band on my C-125 as well. I discovered that the new assemblies were quite expensive. Someone on this forum (can't remember who) turned me on to rebuilding what I had. Brake band lining is available from McMaster Carr (PN 6175K813). It's 3/16 thick by 1 1/2 inches wide. Fits perfectly. You buy it by the foot - wont need very much. Glue it to the metal break band with clear silicone. I clamped it around a coffee can and let it sit for 24 hours. It has worked perfectly for a couple of years. Cost me about $15 and 2 hours of my time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,292 #4 Posted February 23, 2015 I make replacement brake linings for the #9593 brake band. The linings are cut to the proper length, pre-drilled to fit over the rivets, and ready to glue to the band. I have lining material in stock, and can make and deliver one to you for $20.00.

stevasaurus 23,274 #6 Posted February 23, 2015 The band you need is the # 9593 brake band. Any Wheel Horse tractor with an "8 speed" transmission from 1970 and up should be the same part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
