alright so adjusting the pushrod was a fail, so im going to buy some new brakes within a couple of weeks for all 4 wheels, then we will move on from there, with new brakes, i think i should be able to fully understand how much i need to turn the pushrod, then we will begin the testing.

oh also in recent news, i took my Pedo Bear off, it just wasnt safe for me to rock him anymore

Instead of diagnosing the problem, you're going to buy a complete set of pads, calipers, and rotors and hope it helps?

not calipers, just the pads and rotors, the rear pads are near shot, the front pads dust like a mofo, and all rotors are pretty bad

Pads and rotors most likely won't fix your problem

You've replaced you pads while doing brake work, your caliper piston may have overextended. Do you find yourself filling up the master cylinder reservoir frequently after use of the brakes? Check to see if you are leaking and brake fluid.
