you will find the brake drums inside the drive axle , studs on inside front behind mast, then others are behind tires 12 each side total , if memory serves me correct , it will pull out as assembly. then you can take off drums and wheel cylinders , change axle seals on carrier brg. supports before reassembly one side at a time, park brake should be drum on back of tranny good luck
