When your brakes start squealing or you're pushing the pedal to the floor just to slow down, it's time for new brake linings. This complete brake lining kit comes with rivets included, giving you everything needed to restore safe, reliable stopping power to your Ford tractor. Because when you're heading downhill with a loaded wagon, "sort of" working brakes just won't cut it. What You're Getting High-friction lining material provides excellent stopping power in any conditions Complete kit includes all rivets needed for installation - no separate hardware to hunt down Heat-resistant compound prevents brake fade during heavy use like long downhill pulls Asbestos-free formula for safer handling and installation Direct replacement for models 2562 and 2361 brake shoe assemblies Built for Real Farm Work The Ford 2000, 3000, 3600, and 3610 series tractors are workhorses found on farms everywhere. These 40-75 HP machines handle everything from loader work and mowing to pulling grain carts and running hay equipment. Whether you're navigating steep terrain while bush hogging or making frequent stops during loader work, good brakes are essential for safe operation. Made to Last This brake lining uses a modern friction compound that actually outperforms the original material your tractor came with. The material is engineered to maintain consistent braking even when hot - important when you're riding the brakes down a long hill or making repeated stops while feeding cattle. Unlike some cheap linings that glaze over quickly, this material breaks in properly and provides thousands of hours of reliable service. Good to Know Replacing brake linings is a job most farmers can handle with basic tools and some patience. You'll need a rivet tool and a way to remove the old rivets - a drill or grinder works fine. While you have the brakes apart, check your brake drums for scoring or heat cracks. Light scoring can be cleaned up with emery cloth, but deep grooves mean it's time for drum work. Also inspect your brake actuating cams and bushings - worn parts here cause uneven braking that'll wear out your new linings prematurely.
