Michigan 35 loader, brakes. or lack thereof

Anyone changed the brake cylinders on a 35aws and can give me any pointers? seems to be a hard loader to find much useful info on.

There are other places around the net to ask for the older industrial gear information, where the retired old time mechainics hang out.

The online places sometimes have the original old workshop manuals.

Been a long time since I drove one of these. My first rubber tyred loader. I was 13/14. Great in the bush stacking posts. Good luck

I bought this one for tree work funnily enough, save beating up the main tractor too much. would like to find a grapple for it but doesn't seem to be a lot of Michigan stuff about.

Was hoping there were some of the retired old time mechanics hanging out in here. Ah well surely they can't be too hard to do. ?

Throw the vacuum pump away and fit a compressor and Airpac off Ford D series truck. This will give you air over hydraulic brakes which are far superior.

what cylinders are you replacing,the master cylinder is fairly basic. wheel cylinders were a bit tricky. cause you have to remove the hub to get to them.

Wheel cylinders. Master cylinder is out at the moment, fairly basic is an understatement haha took longer to find the right spanner than to pull it out.
