Hello. Was having poor performance from my front brakes, 2000 Recon. Changed out what looked like the original shoes to the bike (also replaced the brake springs on shoes). Took bike out for test ride….same crappy front brakes.

Took the wheels off and bleed both front brakes. Still not working well, will put up a little fiction when spinning wheel up on stand, no braking to speak of on the ground. Thinking this is air somewhere in the line.

My bleeding procedure was as follows. Filled master cylinder (kept filled during process). Loosened the right wheel brake cylinder bleed screw. Put my bleeder kit on it (basically a bottle, tube and a small pointy thing on the end of tube you stick inside the bleeder screw hole. Pumped the brakes numerous times. Worked a bunch of nasty brown brake fluid out, no bubbles in fluid. Tightened bleed screw, repeat other side.

When I hit the brakes I can see the cylinders move, just very weak brakes. What did I do wrong with my bleeding (this works for my cars) and how do I bleed the system properly?

Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I put an 05 450 swingarm, shock, linkage and rear brakes on my EX. Turned it into a beast!

Wanted to get a disc brake kit for my 91 fourtrax. High lifter shows it for a 92 and I couldn’t find one from super atv that fit. I’ve searched the forum and couldn’t find a thread that shows one on a 91. Will the 92 work? I thought most fourtrax were the same or is there another kit for another model that will work? My 300 is a 91 4×4, thanks for the help guys.

left side A frame upper bushing squeaks, I dont see grease fitting. Do I replace can I add grease somehow?

I picked up this kit from Work and Sport ATV’s ebay store. It includes a new panel, drum, cover, and shoes. They also have other packages depending on what other hardware you need.

Their current package lineup is here:
http://stores.ebay.com/WORK-AND-SPOR…um+plate+cover

The quality of these parts are top notch, but they are aftermarket. I had to do a little tweaking to get it all installed.

The back of the panel had to be clearanced slightly with a dremel to get a flush fit with the axle housing. The diameter was just a little too small:

I didn’t take any measurements but this only took a couple of minutes.

The drum damper ring interfered with the panel. The rub marks are visible darker than my file marks. At first I thought a slight filing would fix it, but in the end I went without the damper. No issues.

My rancher needs front break fluid. (04 4×4) Im wondering if I can just add to it or do I need to bleed the brakes as well? It looks empty to me.
