RE: replacement parts

["Naugler, Steve" <SNaugler Rodel com>]

Frank,
        Before you reproduce the brake disc or other parts on or in the
transmission be reminded that the Elec-Trak transmissions were
Peerless/Tehcumseh transmissions whose only modifications were the
elimination of reverse gearing.  (I am not sure if the caliper is from
Peerless or specific to the Elec-Trak, but the disc should be Peerless.)
Most of these parts should be available from any Peerless/Tehcumseh dealer.
A local John Deere dealer near me can supply me with any parts I need.
