I have a h4 crawler/loader and I think my left brake is not releasing all the way. I have the left track off to replace the rear sprocket and to repair the adjusting arm so I have that side blocked up. I started the engine to turn the sprocket so I could get to the bolts better as I took them out but it acted like the brake was still engaged some. is that a hard or easy fix. any ifo is appreciated. thanks norm

I SENT YOU A PM TWO DAYS AGO. DID YOU NOT GET IT ? EVEN IF THE CLUTCHES ARE STUCK OR NOT IT REQUIRES A LITTLE PRESSURE ON A BAR TO MANUALLY TURN THE CLUTCH PACK IN ORDER TO REMOVE THE BACK BOLTS. I ALSO PULLED THE RIGHT STEERING LEVER BACK TO SEE IF THAT MADE IT EASIER TO MOVE THE LEFT SIDE.
