The kits a little more expensive than just rebuilding the factory stuff but so much better. Go ahead and get it you'll thank me later.

Good deal I'm glad I could help. Also you won't regret going with the kit. I love mine when I had them on my 450.

Definitely a good upgrade and investment.

It's money well spent!

Interesting... thanks for the info.

Great investment

@@FourwheelerDoctor I love these old bikes. They don’t make em like that anymore.

@@gettindrunker yes they are solid. I personally owned one for a long time with every imaginable upgrade and it was a beast. I just sold it because I can't seem to get time to ride anymore.

@@FourwheelerDoctor hey brother, I got the kit a while a back and finally got around to installing. First off I had a leaking caliper. They sent me a replacement but it’s the wrong side. Secondly I noticed that the caliper actually rubs on the hub as it spins. I was curious if you ran into that problem? Thanks!

@@gettindrunker no I haven't ran into that do you have the spacers on the studs all the way.

Thanks and thanks for watching

I ran only the front conversion on my 450 for over ten years and I never even needed touched the rear brake after installing the fronts. They will stand it on its nose and work every time you grab them. So you won't really need the rears. Mine was a switchable 4x4 bike but on the full time 4x4 bikes the front brakes will slow the rear tires as well.

If you kit has the holes in each end then you just have to press the two pins down until one of the pads will slide off then slide the other pad off. If your kit has the single pin in the center just remove the pin and the pads will fall out. If you have the first style of calipers then they are identical to Arctic cat ATV calipers and brakes.

@@FourwheelerDoctor that's good to know about being like arctic cat breaks

Are you leaving the bleed screw open on the caliper when you crack it open or are you putting a hose on it and running it into some fluid?

I have never seen that before. Have you recently removed the rear cover. It sounds like you have an issue with your shift sensor.

The stock rims will work as long as they are 12".

That is a good question but I don't know the answer. If I had to bet I would say the splines are different. If you don't mind rigging something up which it doesn't sound like mind lol, I would look at possibly swapping out the entire knuckle hub and brake assembly. If you have a 4x4 you could even cut the outer joint off an axle and weld it to the king quad axle.

Do you happen to have a video of it. I would like to see it?

Did you bleed them good?

@@FourwheelerDoctor i did, but I think I did it wrong

@@salvadortrujillo8510 I fond it works better if you have some back pressure on the bleed screw. what I normally do is take a plastic bottle and a small piece of hose that will fit tightly onto the bleed screw, stick the hose to the bottom the bottle as you bleed it. This will keep the caliper from sucking any air back in from the bleed screw. Start with the caliper on the left side farther away from the master cylinder, bleed it first then go to the right side. The way I normally do it is pump it a few times, hold it pop the bleed screw close it back pump it a few more times hold it and repeat.if you can find a clear piece of hose to go on that bleed screw, you can watch as the air comes out and you get solid fluid coming out. Repeat the process on the right side and you should have brakes.

Yes!!! Go ahead and bite the bullet and get you some.

@@FourwheelerDoctor Alright! Thanks bud.

I have this bike back in the shop for a service and pulled the tire off just to look at the brakes and yes they do touch the tie rod but there is absolutely no wear on the brake line and it actually is doubled up with material as if as if the factory would have rubbed too. This kits been on here 2 years and I haven't even changed the brake pads under pretty harsh service.

Give me your email and I'll send you two pictures of both sides with the steering locked up on it. You can see light between the brake hose and the tie rod but there's not much room between them.

@@FourwheelerDoctor nah, its ok, i went with high lifter, i have used them in the past on my 450's, i know for a fact they install without any issues, thank you for the offer.

@@alanshaw4655 I actually ran a high lifter kit on my 450 for years and never had an issue. I know it's just my opinion but I think that's about the best upgrade to any drum brake ATV ever. Well worth the money. Thanks for watching
