I recently picked up a 1971 JD 820 and I'm trying to figure out the brakes. The pedals push little hydraulic cylinders under the foot rest. The issue is that one pedal needs to be pushed a
good inch to inch and a half farther than the other. This becomes an issue for me when I need BOTH brakes to work on some hillsides. The service manual has some adjustments for the
pedal to cylinder actuator (I hope you know what I mean by that), but that adjustment is minor and doesn't fix the problem. Also, I've tried bleeding the brakes on the low pedal side and I
just get fluid, no air (unless 6 or 8 full pumps isn't enough?)
Can anyone point me in the right direction??
