    Default 4x4 ATV questions

    Just wanted to throw this out there since the new 'Offroad' section opened up. I'm not saying that I know everything, but I know a lot about 4x4 Utility ATV's. If you guys have any questions feel free to ask them. I've been building, racing, bogging, fixing, repairing, and occasionally riding Utility ATV's for the better part of 10 years now.

    Just looking to help the community out, because I know I'm gonna need some gun help someday!

    I'm assuming it's a Kawasaki Prairie 400?? Which brakes are you trying to replace? Front? Rear? Both?

    I think the reason he's getting that response is because the rear drum brake seals are not very good and they tend to wear out pretty quick.

    I understand. If a little different if your riding quad that has a clutch. Then you can use that to slow you down. With the auto you only get to slow down when they get ready to. Unless you flintstone it.
