    John Deere #40 plow questions

    I recently did some trading and got what i think (based on the beam and brace part numbers) to be a JD #40.

    STEERING BRAKE

    does it steer good on that side going up hill? or does it have to be some inmovable object? could be a broken brake band or adjusting/actuating link, my 440 did that once, can you see in the housing to see if it is pulling the band tight?
