how do i tighten the pull on the front hydrolic brakes of a honda rancher? i found how to tighten the shoes, but the lever comes all the way to the grips when i pull it. how do i tighten the lever?

 

1) add fluid
2) You need new pads
3) IF theres air in the lines then bleed them

 

how do i bleed them? i cant find a site that tells how.

 

I am not sure on the Rancher, but on my Fourtrax, there is a bleeder by the wheel. Have someone put some pressure on the lever, and loosen the bleeder (it looks kind of like a grease zerk). When the lever bottoms out, re-tighten the bleeder, and release the lever. Do this a couple times, or until there are NO air bubbles coming out the bleeder. Unless they changed something from the Fourtrax to the Ranchers, this should work on your machine.
Also, be sure you have enough fluid in the reservoir. Add more as you bleed the brakes to be sure you don't ever let in air from the top, or you will have to bleed the brakes all over again.
