Built for Real Farm Work
David Brown 770 (36 HP), 880 (40-46 HP), and 950 (42.5 HP) tractors are respected vintage utility workhorses from the 1960s and early 1970s that remain popular among collectors, small farms, and specialized agricultural operations. The 770 Selectamatic excels in light farm work and grounds maintenance, while the 880 series handles medium-duty tasks including cultivation, mowing, and light haulage. The 950 models provide additional power for more demanding applications like plowing and heavy implement work, and these tractors are commonly used for hobby farming, estate management, vintage tractor shows, and restoration projects.

This replacement brake lining is manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, ensuring safe and reliable braking performance. Proper brake function is essential for operator safety and equipment protection, particularly when operating on slopes or with heavy implements.
Installation Notes
Professional installation recommended to ensure proper rivet placement and brake adjustment, and always replace brake linings in complete sets while inspecting brake drums for wear or damage during installation. Follow proper safety procedures including blocking wheels and relieving hydraulic pressure before beginning brake service. The rivets are sized right and included, but take your time getting the spacing even—it makes all the difference in how your brakes feel afterward.
