83-year-old Taco lover here. My wife wanted to hire a mechanic and I said no way and so happy to find your wonderful video. Please do more and stay the way you are. As others have noted you stay on task, use good lighting, and keep the music down low.

One of the best brake change videos out here. Thanks

I've never seen a how-to video as good as this. Great job man and thank you very much

Wow! that is easy that will save me money.😊

Well done. No ranting or raving. Nice to see a well done informative video without loud music or self aggrandizing antics. Keep up the good work.

Excellent video! Very well explained, excellent step-by-step, great pace! Well-done! GBL

This guy knows what he’s doing. Very professional and precise.

One of the better front disc brake job videos I have watched on you tube. Great job with sound and lighting.

You did an excellent job. Very glad you showed the very end how to put those clips back in because it was a bit confusing how they came out…awesome job. Thank you very much

Great video! Easy to follow and very well explained. Just the video I was looking for. Thank you!!!

I don’t understand why so many people remove the brake hose clip. It’s MUCH EASIER to just remove the bolt on the brake hose bracket that way you can move it totally out of the way.

Most mono tone video ever, but it's so detailed and great that i can't hate it! I have a 3rd gen taco but basically same setup thank you for this video dude!

Step-by-step video with very good camera angle and lighting.

This is a Great Brake Job explanation!!! I love the way you explain the important details, keep up the good work man!!!

Your video was excellent. Really well organized making it clear and easy to follow you when you describe what you’re doing. Most of all, the the good camara angles and good lighting helped make the video easy to understand. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Great instructional video, enough detail but not too much. Excellent video quality, clear with great lighting. ~Thanks

Perfect video, I'm going to change the pads and rotors on my 2015 Tacoma soon and I couldn't have found a better guide to help me. Even if I wasn't mechanically inclined I could do this with this video. I'll definitely be following you for anything concerning my truck. Great Job!!! Thanks so much

Thank you for a thorough explanation of what you're doing. Especially on the use of grease and anti-seize on brake pads.

Great video,thanks for taking the time and explaining things in detail

Excellent video! Very informative and detailed. Anyone should be able to replace their brake pads or rotors following your video. Great job. Thank you!

As pretty much 108 other people have said great video. Going to try this on my 2012 Taco thanks!

Great video and very informative and instructional I will be doing this on a 2016 Tacoma this video will be a big help. Thank you for posting

Doing this job this weekend. Thanks excellent 👍.

Thank you so much! Very well-done video, I did my brakes and rotors on my Tacoma following your video...Thank you!

Thanks ,Well done and to the point. This is just what I needed I used power stop Z36 extreme pads and drilled & slotted rotors I took the first caliper apart by mistake but all is well. You helped alot.

Great video. Thank you! I successfully got the pads changed. However, while compressing the pistons (in order to fit the new pads) , I pushed brake fluid back into the master cylinder. This caused overflow out of the cylinder, and now the level is way above the max line, almost to the top of the reservoir. I am wondering if this somehow introduced air into the lines and therefore will require bleeding, or if everything will settle back into the lines eventually. Thanks to anyone who might have any help with this matter!

Very Good Demo

Great no nonsense job. Thank you

Thanks, very good.

Very thorough. Thanks

Well done!

Great video

Excellent job sir 👏 very help ful

Thank you!

Thnx nice job

Very informative, very well made video! 👍🏽 and subscribed. Thanks!

Good info

I watch several videos, for brakes, even though I have decades of experience, one is never to old to learn and I love pointing out certain things.. Shocking part that you did that others dont, torque down the mounting bolts and lug nuts, plus giving the torque specs. For me, I flush out brake fluid with new before compressing the pistons. I dont like the idea of pushing contaminated fluid back into the reservoir and antilock system.

Great video.....thanks

Very well done. Thank you. Do you think my 2010 4WD would be much different?

Thanks so much. Great video. Thenonly question the plates needs some lubrication right.

Very well done

Great video. Would like to see one on the rear brakes.

Always take a picture close up and at all angles of EVERYTHING you plan to disassemble.

12:33 he caught himself saying “beat it off” 🤣

Good, useful and informative. I will review it again when I do my brakes on my Tacoma. jb mccain

Thanks

Great Video. Very Helpful Step By Step...... One question. What is the Torque setting for the two caliper mounting bolts?

Great video, what about putting a little antisieze on the caliper mounting bolts?

The silver tab for the inner pads, does it matter if it's installed on top or bottom? I've seen another video that says the tab goes on bottom, but when I changed mine the ones I replaced had the tab on top

You are a good mechanic, but the music is very loud. We did not listen to your explanation and your words are very fast, but we work for you and thank you.

very informative and nicely presented , does the brake fluid reservoir cap need to be opened,also I hope to do my tire rotation soon on 2018 access cab 4 cylinder and will observe the braking system to see if it matches what i have seen on your video Thanks for the video

Thanks for the upload. I a, loving these tacoma vids.

When you compress the pistons do you need to open the brake fluid reservoir cap? How do you know whether to take the cap off or not?

Hey bud, I know your video is old but its a great one, wondering what size of bolt to you use to push the Rotor off ? thank u

At 30k miles on my 2021 Tacoma, I’m considering trans fluid drain and fill. Would you recommend full flush instead? Thanks for the brake pad video. Very well done.

Do you have a video on how to replace the rear brake shoes?

I’ve heard you have to use oem when replacing toyota brakes. Have you found this to be true? I noticed you used after market and wanted to see your experience with them.

Nice DIY video! Does your 2015 Tacoma front Brake Setup similar to a 2010 Toyota 4Runner?

Never changed brakes before, do you suggest me doing it? 2019 Tacoma. Video heiped

I use the screw approach every time to remove the rotor. Hammers are for rookies. :)

When I reinstalled the caliper after installing a new wheel stud I put a small line of anti-seize on each of the caliper mounting bolts. After watching your video would you recommend taking the bolts out to remove the anti-seize or would it be ok you leave them in with anti-seize on them? ~ Thanks

I have a 2021 toyota tacoma double cab 2.7 sr would mines be similar to yours

What thread size bolt should you use to remove the rotors?

Would this be pretty much the same for a 5 bolt, 2WD 2007 Tacoma?

With using the pry bar to depress the pistons, does that have the chance of damaging the rotors?

Should you lightly grease pins?

Should I have my rotors turned or just put on new.They aren’t warped at all.

Thanks, Kelly great video, very detailed down to the torque values. I believe this is the first video I've seen that gives torque values. Quick Questions, I purchased the Duralast Gold Rotors and Duralast Elite Brake Pads at AutoZone what do you think of their quality? Also, is it normal for Tacoma's to warp their rotors? Thank you in advance for your time and replies. Stay safe and God bless.

Anyone notice when he turned the rotor it looked like a wobble in those rotors?

Great video! Awful interfering and annoying music.

Do you need to change rotors every time you change pads?
