Jim:
These are disc brakes, more like what you would have found on a small airplane back them and not similar to any truck that i know of. I have been buying junk tugs as I have found them with the idea of restoring one or more completely. I have four incomplate tugs around right now. When I get around to parting out I will have some brake parts but my tug project is on hold right now as i have other things going on.
I'd like to give you the names and phone numbers of a couple of guys who have done complete restorations or are working on one and may have found a source of brake parts. Please email me privately at paladin1@ptd.net as I don't want to post their phone numbers online. If you are good at Google searches there is a guy in the midwest who rebuilt the brakes on one and posted a video online. I have talked to him and have his phone number, too.
I have an original parts manual. If you want a copy let me know.
Let me know also if you still have and want to sell any of the stuff that you removed from your tug. I need some parts.
Bob
