Guys! Heellllllpppppp! I need brakes

Has anyone ever had trouble with brakes and couldn't adjust them? That is my problem. She is a craftsman lt 4000. How do you fix this?

Youll have to pull the wheel off, and take the brakes apart- the disimilar metals cause corrosion and seize up.

Once the caliper is off, set it flat on a level concrete surface- use a hammer ( yes a hammer) to pound the steel pins through - just hit the pins. Once the pins are out, sand and clean the steel pins, clean the caliper bores, use a tiny dab of never seize on them( where they pass thru the caliper) and the caliper bolts and reassemble it - that should keep the corrosion away.

She moves but I just can't stop

How long have u had it? do what he said but check the pads might be wore down or deteriorating. I had a tractor years ago when i took it apart the one side of the pad was gone it broke apart.

Well guys I took the caliPer off and the pins that engage the pad were rusted open so hammered them out and sprayed with Penetration oil put it back together and BRAKES!!

haha sweet, thats y i like these brakes not much to them lol
