Nothing ruins a day in the field like brakes that fade on you when you're pulling a heavy load down a hill or need to stop quick for the neighbor's cattle in the road. If your 40 series tractor's brakes are getting spongy or taking longer to stop than they used to, this complete brake kit brings back that confident stopping power you need. Those slotted discs aren't just for looks - they keep things cool when you're working the brakes hard. What You're Getting Complete set of 8 brake discs and 4 intermediate discs for full system rebuild Slotted design that sheds heat better than solid discs, so no more brake fade during heavy use Genuine Carlisle brake material that grabs consistently and lasts through seasons of hard work All the hardware you need included - no hunting around for missing pieces Direct fit for both 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder models in the 40 series lineup Built for Real Farm Work Your Ford New Holland 40 series - whether it's a utility 5640 or the big 8340 - puts in long days doing everything from cultivation to hay work. These mid-range tractors handle the bulk of farm work, and when you're pulling implements, running a loader, or hauling loads between fields, you need brakes that work every time. The slotted design handles the heat buildup that comes with real farm use. Made to Last The Carlisle brake material in this kit is the same quality stuff that came on your tractor originally. It's engineered to handle the constant heat cycles and heavy loads that farm tractors see. The precision-machined slots help dissipate heat evenly, preventing the hot spots that cause warping and uneven wear. This isn't cheap aftermarket material that'll have you doing the job again next year. Good to Know Professional installation is your best bet here - brake work isn't the place to learn as you go. Make sure whoever does the work follows proper torque specs and bleeding procedures. The slotted discs need a brief break-in period, so take it easy on them for the first few hours. While you've got everything apart, it's a good time to inspect brake lines and check fluid levels.
