David: I did this to my Super A about 15 years ago, problem is I'm having trouble remembering exactly what I did. I did completely disassemble both levers and shafts, and I replaced both friction pads and springs. I do remember cleaning everything then applying spray on graphite to insure the shaft turned within the sleeve.
The part I forget is the adjusting of those double nuts. They are designed so the spring just puts enough tension on the friction pad, so the lever stops where you stop it. As I recall if that tension is too tight it will just turn the sleeve with the lever shaft. I think getting it clean, then the graphite, is the key to success with these. In getting them apart, you'll find a roll pin at the base of the lever.
I did both my SA and 130 at the same time, bought 4 springs and 4 friction pads. I have one of each left over, so I did have a decent spring and friction pad on the two tractors. The springs that were bad had lost all their spring presure, thus it was as if one put it together with no springs. In 1992 those were still available at CaseIH, I expect they still are as the last of the 140s were the same.
I'm starting to remember how I did this as I type. If you have any questions come back. At least let me know how you make out. I'm going to be in my shop after lunch, thinking of scraping the SA off and giving it a fresh coat of paint and new decals. If being out there jogs my memory on anything else, I'll come back.
