i have a problem with the brake pedal getting stiff and my brakes will lock up and buggy cant move. if i crack the bleeder it lets the pressure off and its fine. it seems as if the master cylinder wont let the pressure go back down. does it every time i ride |

Check your rubber lines they can break down and cause fluid to be held at the caliper Posted using the WoodsBuggy Mobile App |

Check your cutting brakes. If they are not retracting (pistons) far enough they wont let the pressure back off. |

and 1 other.... The rod from the pedal to the cylinder needs to be adjusted shorter. If you ever have to rebuild it, go to Auto Zone and get a wheel cyl rebuild kit , part# 66599. it's for 3/4 cups. 2 in each kit. $4. The part # reads upside down is an easy way to remember it. |
