Hi Rob
Pretty easy job if the screws come out easily.   If they are seized...
1) remove the throttle / shift lever assembly if you have one - you will have to pull the pins connecting the levers to the forks on the cables. Small needlenose pliers are good. And remove the plate holding the pedestal guard. 2) on the end of the brake locking shaft down inside there is a cotter pin, you have to get that off. needlenose pliers or needlenose vice grips. 3) remove the plate on top (two screws at the forward edge of the metal plate that retains the upper ends of the brake pads). 4) hold the left pad with vicegrips or pliers, and turn the brake knob to unscrew it off of the threaded shaft. Remove left pad 5) hold the right pad and pull out the brake knob, the right pad slides on/off.

That's pretty much it. If you want a hand some evening, I work for beer... :-)

Has anyone installed an Edson Wheel Brake Replacement Kit?

When I remove the Danforth compass and look down at where the new kit should go, I wonder if this is a DIY job?

Reminds me of replacing my mixing elbow.....if you were doing it on a work bench, no big deal.....doing it in the constricted space is a challenge.

If anyone has done it or knows how to do it, what happens after the compass is removed? Any and all advice welcomed.
