Yeah, I'd pull that brake assembly off there and fix it... then pull the plates off the sprockets and see if you can salvage/grind them otherwise more part$
Removed the middle cover plate with the traction lock soleniod on top and found the the bolt that holds the wedge lock bar to the soleniod plunger had broke. Took a magnet and found the broken bolt laying in the bottom. Took care of the problem a $10.00 fix but a few hours of labor. Never found the little washer or the spring.
