Great video! Just going over the tool / socket sizes in the first minute saved me a bunch of time. I couldn't believe how heavy those rotors were when I first changed them a few years back.

You did a terrific job with this video. Concise. Regimented. And thorough! Will watch your rear brake replacement video next. Thank you for making this and sharing. Gives this old man (59) the confidence that I can accomplish this myself. 👏🦾

Thanks for this video because O'reilys kept giving me the wrong front pads and Auto Zone did also until i told the guy theses pads are to small for my 2013 Explorer Sport. Then he brought me the (heavy duty) ones that fit my SUV, he asked was it Police equipped i said no but the Heavy duty Pads worked.

Scott have thought of using antiseize behind the rotors. It'll help when you will do it again. I use the copper antiseize for the heat. I have it doing for years on all my rotor replacements.

Thank you for the video very informative and easy to follow do you need to torque those bolts down to those exact number what if you don’t have a torque wrench

I also changed my front and rear rotors and pads. When I asked the Ford Service mechanic what kind of rotors I needed, he told me that they were regular Ford rotors, which I ordered from eBay. They came and wanted to change, but they were smaller than mine. Later, I did research and learned that they are called Heavy-Duty Rotors and Brakes. I have one question: is opening the Brake Fluid Reservoir Cap a good idea to ease the brakes to push?
@linksgarage19853 ай бұрын
Yes. The sporty had the heavy duty rotors. And No. Opening the cap won’t make it easier to collapse calipers. And you risk losing fluid. Good luck.

Do you think I can use a 2.5 ton jack on the Explorer. The price difference between 2.5 and 3 ton is huge. Thanks!

how do you know which size rotor you need to buy (they come in different sizes) and if you have standard or heavy duty brakes (they have different shape)
@linksgarage19854 ай бұрын
This is a sport. They are the larger size with heavy duty components. The other explorers have the smaller size. To my understanding. You’ll have to be sure you have correct components. You can always just measure.

Did you snap pff the clips on the new pads I see they were on there. Thanks!

The Ford ones I bought have a outter clip attached to the pads like yours had but are no longer there when you put them on

Whatever your service manual recommends. I am not sure.

You might want to go back over your tools and tell people what size Torx that it takes to get the front rotors off
