Advise please:: Rear Halfshaft removal and brakes - Iseki tractor model TX2140

[Marcle]

You may have seen my other post wanting a rear halfshaft or two and one has snapped, so the other may be on its way out.

I suspect I'll work it out one I start getting my fingers dirty, but a heads up will be helpful please. Most halfshafts I've worked on, are held in place with a collar behind the main bearing which is pressed on to the halfshaft, however this looks a bit different. In the image below, I can see a circlip holding the bearing in place, is that all that hold the shaft in place, assuming the bearing was a friction fit? Or do I need to remove the housing secured with the green arrows?

Secondly, are the brake shoes behind the housing with the red arrows? I'm assuming they're dry shoes, rather than wet?

Thanks in advance.
