I just bought a new caliper with pads installed for 45$ and put it in took maybe 20 minutes

Jealous 🙄😂

[@tylerchaney1533]

I thought polaris snowmobile brake systems sucked...until I bought a trail boss. What a pain, I feel like a kid trying to figure out a brake job with a Haynes manual.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

My pins came right out 😂

[@ToyShop9665]

Better go buy a lottery ticket 😂

Thats when i just. Counterbore the pin holes and find a long socket head cap screw and turn the bolt down to the same diameter as the factory pins

[@ToyShop9665]

That’d probably work!

[@JessePitts-nc5by]

What kind of lift is that?

[@ToyShop9665]

It’s a snowmobile lift from Extreme Max

My problem with the rear is that no matter what I do the rear piston stays stuck out. My fronts are fine. I have a no idea what to do. I even got a different caliper to put on

[@ToyShop9665]

Are you trying to rebuild it? There’s the push plunger in the rear so I’d make sure that isn’t froze and your piston is hitting that.

[@aech2324]

Just me or is it easy to find a new caliper online?

[@ToyShop9665]

I couldn’t find a new one online 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@jevaughnmcpherson4138]

Where? I was looking and didn't see any.

Good job. I had watched that other video just like you but I had the exact same problem you did with those pins, and ended up basically doing the same thing. This was before finding your video. Rather then tacking a washer to the pins and letting the pins soak somewhat in penetrating oil, i ground the sides down on a cheap pair of vice grips, so i had more room. That coupled with the heat i was able to work them out an 1/8 of an inch to clamp another set of vice grips on. Your right this is a shit ass design and another problem im finding is, you cant find a new one, so repairing its all you can do. I am curious though, where did you find your kit for the rebuild? I havent seen anything with a new piston! I got my quad on a trade and im not even sure what the hell it is. He said its 96 trail boss 400. I look at stuff though on ebay, and things are really unclear. I just know my rear braking is just like yours.
