    860 ford brake locked

    860 ford brake locked

    This just in at news central. Ha ha. Got up above freezing here today. Tried moving tractor, forward no go, reverse struggle at first then better, then forward works but wants to drag/grab. Thus was on slippery snowy grass. Next is trying minor brake adjustment. What you think? Wish me luck!!

    860 ford brake locked

    Hello guys&gals!! My 860 left brake is locked up, think it has been dragging in the past, if I lift pedal it also applies brake is this normal? Bitter cold here, so I'm hopeing that is cause, but apparently something is not rite! Do you think heating it up is worth a try??
