I replaced my pads on my 1995 Magnum today. Thinking this was as simple as doing car brakes…I pulled the retaining hex screw…disconnected the mounting bracket….with the master cylinder cap off I used a c clamp to push the piston back in and changed the pads….did the same on the other side.
When I pumped the handle afterwards the pistons became rock hard and wont release now? I never broke the brake lines so I wouldn’t think they would need bleeding? Any ideas whats going on? I did notice a little round filter like disc in the master cylinder not connected to anything?

I have a 2000 xpedition that has been sitting for about a year or so under a covered barn with the brakes still working before it was put up. I’m fixing it up since everything still works on it but I can not get pressure on the brakes. I cleaned the lines out and have done the bleeding procedure several times. All calipers bleed when I crack them open but still don’t have pressure on the handle and does not stop the wheels at all when applied. Do I need all new calipers?
So my new set up with 27 inch executioners hit the fenders when I’m going fast and hit a decent bump it rubs. Would it be better off to put hd springs on it to give it a little lift or buy spring spacers. I understand the lift puts more strain on front axles but wouldnt the lift from the springs have the same effect on the axles as a lift?

They’re factory set at the lowest and because I have grim reapers in the back they rub so I need to click them maybe 3 notches? Do I use that wrench that came with the atv?
