My friend is still having problems with his brakes overheating and locking up on him.
So far he has.
Removed and cleaned out his MC including all the valving.
Changed his flex lines.
Changed the caliper that was doing it really bad.
Welded up and filed the grooves in his knuckles.
Its a 91, 4.0 with 350kms It started with the passanger side and he replaced the caliper and after that both seem to get hot now. I think the bit of heat may just be normal but the drag on the passanger side is way too hot.
After finding out we can only get a combo valve at the dealer for $250 CAN.
Can he rebuild it? In the manual it says no but then reading on here it sounds like some people have rebuilt it.
One last thing we are thinking is maybe his hub is too tight? Its brand new and we put anti seize all over the axle shaft and nut and washer. Could it have torqued a bit higher then the reading because of that?
Thanks for any help, its driving him so crazy that he is thinking of just trading it in for something else.
