Ok I started taking stuff off tonight.
I took off the drive belt
Driven sheave
Both calipers
Both drive chains
Loosened the rear mounting nut.
Now when trying to tap the brake disc off it...
Thanks for the help, is it just a matter of finding the connecting link and taking off the drive chain. Then pulling the disc after I take off the calipers?
I have a big foot 6x6 that when the brakes are applied the brake handle will jump back and forth. It doesn't matter if done lightly or hard. Although the harder you pull the harder it jumps. I...
When I had the calipers off I rubbed them down pretty good with the maroon norton beartex pads, they are mostly clean now. Wearing shorts with all the guards removed I can feel the brake pad...
Put all new seals in and cleaned the calipers up, changed all of the brake fluid out and I'm still having problems.
When driving and I apply the brake I still get the brake lever jump and I can...
Ok, got the Pistons out no problem. However I cannot get the Allen bolts out that hold the two halves together. Also I noticed looking at the brake pads that half of one of the pads is already worn...
Well I greased the chains and got a chance to ride around for an hour or so last weekend and the brakes still have a little jump to them. I pulled the calipers off tonight and will change the seals...

Thanks for the help, all I Ment for the calipers was to just replace the 3 seals in them. I'm going to try to get the parts ordered this week.
And thoughts on "Argo adventure" for parts? Is...
Well the other caliper looks the same so I'll change out both sets of pads, might be a good time to do the calipers also. Is the a preferred vender I should look at? Thanks for the help!

Here is a picture of what I am talking about. Am I missing the left brake pad?
Got home tonight and pulled the caliper off the right side and used a beartex pad to smooth it down. Put it back together and rode around a little. The brake is still kicking back and with it being...
first post, I've got a 6x6 bigfoot with 150hrs, that when you pull either brake lever it jumps back and forth. I pulled all of the covers off and noticed that the rotor is rusted up. going slow I...
