350B Brake Band ?

[JDLover]

So I am guessing I will need to replace the right brake band. The right lever was needing to be pulled really hard to steer. The left also needed to be tweaked. I adjusted both according to the manual and the left responds awesome now. The right worked good for a couple of pulls and now the clutch disengages and the brake isn't grabbing at all. I went through and adjusted everything a second time and same result.

My question is, I see mixed reviews on some of the bands and I want to buy decent ones so I get good life out of them. I was looking at the complete clutch /brake kits on steeringclutch.com. I see they have the better bi-metal clutches, but how are the quality of their brake bands?

Contact Lavoy, provider of this site. His business is repairing JD crawlers and selling parts for them. He will sell you parts he uses and stands behind in his business and is available with technical support of them if needed. You will be getting parts from someone who has first-hand knowledge of the parts, not just an order taker.

Oh I did not realize he sold 350B parts. I thought he only delt in older stuff (MC, 40, 420).

[Jim B]

Always worth asking. He deals in the older ones primarily, but he knows his suppliers and has access to more if he doesn't stock something.

Just got an order of 350 dry brake bands in last week, Made in USA.

Lavoy,

I am getting a mechanic lined up and then want to order a brake/clutch kit from you. Do you have a website to order through?
