Re: Brake help
I changed out my tracks and riveted on new liners on all 4 wheels. Cleaned, painted, fitted and adjusted everything as you suggested. They work great with no squeal and no slop at all. Thanks dudes!

Re: Brake help
I'm in pa. Real close to where the groundhog sees his shadow every year. Everything else seems good. Good bushings and little wear on the rollers. I'll weld them up and grind them back.
