    Well then replace the dot5 fluid and bleed the brakes, clean the pads with some brakleen, or preferably replace the brake pads. Adjust the plungers Per the manual.

    None of this should cause a vibration or noise unless the pads are metal to metal.

    this is my magnum.it worked good when i put it into maintenance but the right handle was always spongy but worked decent. this time it didnt work at all. tranny fluid is good and clean,juts nice clean gear oil. keys ways were good,chains are good.all tires spin as they should. like i said after wiping the pads free of grease it worked somewhat better than before but still not up to par. i think the key to my problem is the sponginess in my brake lever?

    What machine are you playing with, Your Magnum or the I/C ?

    Did this machine work good before you adjusted it?

    Did you change the gear oil and was it full of a silver hue?

    Tell the whole story.

    they were kinda shiny? but did also have alot of grease. also my volt meter shows little over 12 then when i turn the brake fan on it drops suddenly to 11?

    Bleeding them wont hurt. Were the pads glazed or have grease on them?

    cleaned the pads and that helped quite a bit but still not turning as good as she do left. maybe some air in the system? should i give them a bleed and see what happens?

    Maybe try swapping pads side to side, if possible, and see if the problem changes sides.

    still not turn..... had chains off and everything,keys are good tranny fluid is good,tried with equal tire psi and still nothing. i think maybe i have contaminated pads possibly? thats the only thing it could be.

    Is your transmission fluid clean? Not an Argo guy, just putting ideas out...

    pulled the rotor off to find all the keys were good and nothing unusual. i dont know what else to check? i ran it jacked up and the wheels all stopped as they should

    Ok then, removal of the brake disks may reveal broken/sheared drive keys (key stock).

    so your saying my fronts maybe are not locking up? it makes sense if it was true or possibly the same with the rears. what are spiral pins?
