Brake Fluid Loss Mystery
Hi, everyone. I have a situation that has me stumped. I changed the brake pads on my Mule 3010 Trans, and ever since then it's been losing brake fluid (significantly... the brakes lose function after about 30 minutes of riding and the fluid reservoir is empty). There are no visible leaks on the ground whatsoever, and this weekend I removed the two rear drums to see if it may be leaking inside of the drum. There were no visible signs of any fluid inside of either one. I was planning to check the front two drums this weekend, but is there anything else it could possibly be? I ordered a set of 4 brake cylinders just in case one was leaking... surely that has to be the case? One last thing. After bleeding the brakes this weekend I had my wife hold the pedal down to see if the brakes got soft and also so I could look around for leaks. Oddly enough, the back brakes were locked up tight as you'd expect, but I could easily turn the front wheels (I had the mule raised completely off of the ground on jack stands). Any thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated.
