Picked up a 1975 JD 200 a few weeks ago and need to get the right brake pedal off . Any tricks to getting this off ? Thought I would ask before taking off to many things that I should not have to.
Thanks
So the trick is stand on your head while trying to do jumping jacks lol , all jokes aside yes its a pain for sure youll need to remove the pin for the brake rod an the bolts or pins that hold it onto the bracket ive helped truck 21 put a few together an ill tell ya right now youll invent a few new words for it
Snap ring on the inside of the frame on the end of the shift needs to come off. Make sure the fender pan is loose so you can get in to disconnect the brake rod. Once that is all done pull the fender pan toward you as far as you can. Taking the rubber foot pad off makes things easier. When you get the shaft out of the frame drop it down and out. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
Thanks guys for all your advise . So does the return spring stay put or is it going to go flying off ? Will be a few days till I get a chance to give it a try. Thanks again

Nope have not had a chance to yet. Had to work the weekend so was not able to work on it. But you guys paint such a rosy picture on how easy it will be I can hardly wait to get at it .LOL
LOL....it can be a pain but you'll be fine. It's a lesson in patients sometimes for sure. I've got five 1975 tractors plus worked on a few more so i've got a bit of experience with them.
Well got a little time this evening to take a time to look at this again. With some good advise that I received here was able to get it off in about 15 to 20 minutes. Thanks guys . I believe that going back together may be a little more difficult.
So next question are the pedals suppose to be black or green ? On this one under the rubber pad it is green as is the rest of the pedal. The left pedal is also green.
Thanks again.
Ok couple of updates . Gas tank is soaking in apple cider vinegar , Have pressure washed it three times and may get it again.
Question , does anyone have any photos of the bottom side of the lift lever. Not sure if I am missing some parts of if something is bent . Looks different than the 110’s . Or ever a picture or the parts break down from the parts manual .
