Hi Ken.. remember a few wks ago I mentioned brakes on my tractor ,,well it's identical set up ..it's fiddly to get right...my trouble goes back to a stripped out hole, all I could do was go next size up ...it's working at least...I called those shims cause I pack em with extra pieces as pad wares...I cut new pads from a set from a car😂
Ohhh boy No adjustment on the rear brakes for John deere stx 38, why didn't they make long shaft to "brake cam" in 2- pieces with turnbuckle that's solid steel 😉 guess I'll have fix it myself correctly so it's adjustable
Is it a yellow or black deck? Also I have both black and yellow 38 decks but that round 30 inch deck is at the customer’s. Email me and I’ll send a link to the service manual where you can see it
I have nothing against shops as I don't have the ability for that kind of volume. However I see all types of mechanics making these types of mistakes. The 20 and hour guys and the 90 an hour guys. Wow. We see this all the time eh !!!

Nicky at 10 bucks a set, the pads are cheap here in the USA.
I have run into this same issue in tube past, Mr. Homeowner decides to repair it them selves a can't remember how it came apart.
And the owner is a friend who only took it to the dealer!!!

Hey there, can you make a video about how to connect this deck? I had it off and lost some part and am not sure how to put it back together properly
