well the date went well... I now have a new girl friend. The atv was a bitch and we got rear brake pads on after awhile and a grinder... once we got them on we were just filling the resivor and **** and right before we bled them i hit the rear brake and a bunch of brake fluid squirted out of the left side of the caliper where the large rubber seal is... now thats leaking... What can i do now??? Thanks Ryan

Sounds like a rebuild kit or a new caliper is gonna be your fix.

maybe if you went to a Atv mechanic, but it looks like you have to order individual parts. i would just get a used caliper off ebay.

if its clogged with crud i would remove it and clean it with carb cleaner. and then wipe out the area it was in. just to make sure there is no chunks or other stuff to get sucked up into it again.
