Awesome tutorial! I love the attention to detail. I wish I had all of the equipment to make this a 30 minute job, but I think I did pretty well replacing all of my rotors and pads on my 350. Thank you for keeping your medics safe.

Very useful video. I have a couple of additions for the DIYer working at home: -Without a serious air tool, removing the torque-to-yield bolts isn't easy. Make sure you have a 1/2" drive breaker bar and a strong 15mm, 6-point socket (NAPA sells them). A 12-point socket may not be capable of the necessary torque - it may slip off, mangling the head of the bolt. - Normal levels of corrosion may make the rotor much more difficult to remove than was the case in the video. To deal with this, first remove the dust shield inboard of the rotor (3 small bolts that take an 8mm socket). Then use a heavy hammer to drive the rotor inboard until it becomes loose, and rotate it to give the correct alignment for removal. Finally, a lot of tapping with a medium hammer will drive the rotor outboard and eventually off.

This is the best Automotive How-to video I have seen on KZfaq. I used to maintain 3 T1N Sprinters, and the factory service manual from Mercedes was great. No such luck from Ford, (I tried one of the cobbled together Transit “Service Manual CD’s” off Ebay, and am really disappointed by what is available). Videos like yours are an absolute life saver - thanks for taking the time to put these together - sharing your valuable expertise is hugely appreciated by us shadetree mechanics :)

Outstanding for so many reasons! Professionalism is difficult to mix successfully with accuracy AND a sense of humor. My boss buys 2-3yr old Transits for his HVAC fleet. It's my job to ready them for the road. I am also in charge of the fleet as it rolls on... Your advice and wisdom has been instrumental in my well-being! My "Rust Belt" notes will include the use of an air hammer to separate the rear rotor from the axle flange. Then further use to align it for removal. A floor jack kept the bearing stationary. Thank you for being meticulous!

Harrison: as many others here have commented already - I REALLY appreciate the thoroughness of your video content and dialog. It's some of the best I've seen anywhere. Has given me the assurance to go ahead and do my own Transit's brakes (both front and rear). In my case - the rear rotors are at a point where they need to be replaced also. Some of the comments made here by those who question some of your suggestions re: safety and liability-related aspects of this work, and who appear to feel that their levels of legal and mechanical expertise are beyond reproach, is simply unfortunate. They really need to go find something more useful and productive to do with their time. Again - great video. Many thanks for all the details re: parts and tools needed.

Thanks so much for this video. I watched a couple of other videos and was about to do the pads only until hearing your sermon on Doing It Right. Other videos let the caliper dangle by the hoses and didn't replace the bolts that should have been. The detailed torque specs and part numbers were a huge help, and I was lucky enough to get the last set of bolts from my local dealer. It took me a half days work, but coming from someone who's done little more than change oil, I'm pretty thrilled--the prospect of removing the axle was daunting before seeing this. Saved $600 in labor the dealer quoted, which is much appreciated during covid without work. One question that came up--the sliding bolts are not identical--one has a little splined rubber piece at the end, one has two shallow grooves. After watching the video closely, I think I put them back as you did--but the bores looked the same, so I'm guessing it's not critical? Lastly, if someone else rewinds the piston too far and the notches won't align, try applying the parking brake slightly with the tool loosened and in place to stop it. This pushed it out enough to try again.

Be doing the rear brakes when the parts come in (Rotors x2, pads x2, axle bolts/ring kits x2, caliper bracket bolts w/guide pin kits x2. Locktite, brake cleaner, caliper compression tool w/hooks, some grease, jack stands) came out to about $250 (Extra tools to use later with front brakes makes it about $200 when counting only brake parts.) Get this. I checked for the heck of it the estimate at pep boys who quoted $680 for the job.) So more than 3 times the cost. I hope to video my job and post it as an example of how we can do this ourselves. JIFFY Lube quoted about $350 for the rear using basic pads and turning rotors most likely. So yeah, looking forward to taking care of this maintenance task soon. Since my front brakes are still not grinding, my impulse is to only change the pads. If my inspection of the rotors reveal smooth surface. Perhaps as a test to see if the pads only approach will work. If any issues upon operations check then I'll just go all t he way and get new rotors. Rear rotors were about $40 each. Thinking I may try to get my old rear rotors resurfaced since I'll be able to drive them in and drop them off for the work. Then later I can use those when rear brakes need to be done again. Same with front rotors as well. Your right about $20 per rotors resurfacing. The old rear pads expired at around 30k mile point after buying vehicle new. Your video made this do it yourself possible Thanks.

Excellent. The problem is that the Ford Dealership said the pads were ok. That was 10,000 miles ago. We had replace them at 36,000 miles because they had ground down the rotor both sides. Replaced pads and rotors. Axle coming out was a surprise, yikes. So now with 40,000 miles, the Ford Dealer said the pads were ok. The shop around the corner..... good reputation.... said the pads aren't worn. I can see them. They are worn. No one, I guess, wants to do this. Pain in the butt maybe. Going to another dealership to see if they will replace them, as the rotors will be grinding soon. Your were very informative though. Oh, and the tool to push the piston only goes ONE direction and that is only the passenger side. The right hand side like you did, we need your universal turning tool. Not sure where that is available.

Good job and explanation- 2020 transit 350hd DRW with 20k miles - hearing some “brake noise “ -howl? Coming from the back. Looking at the front rotors and pads look like plenty of pad left, but the backs are harder to see from any angle. Feeling with my finger , the caliper feels closer to the rotor than the fronts do. I think I probably only need rear brakes. Ford dealers near me don’t have rotors or bolts in stock and have to be ordered. Are you advising against pad slapping in my case ?

Hey man awesome videos. What is the caliper tool your using to twist and push in the caliper called. I’ve been looking around and can’t seem to find that exact one.

Fantastic video buddy! Correct if I'm wrong anyone, but to remove the rear disc for skimming ( providing enough thickness), still requires the axle to be removed first? Bad design for a simple rear disc skim ?

Most ford dealers are using on car brake lathes to reduce the amount of hardware used. The only thing that has to be removed to cut the rotors with an on car brake lathe is the brake caliper with the right lathe. But any other way yes you have to remove the axle.

@@medtec6747 thanks for that info Buddy. I don't think ford Australia has on car lathe. Even if they did, by the time they charge extra labour to do that, I'm better off just paying more for new rotors. $400 Australian each. My dual wheel truck has a heavy utility body. It's done 30 thousand kilometers, and going to need new rota all round and pads and rear sensors $2100 Australian total. ( $500 of that is labour). Thanks 👍

I want this guy or someone else as skilled, knoweledgeable, and with his good positive work ethics working on my vehicle! Buy the way I'm getting ready to order a new Transit for personal use and Med Tec67 video "Eco boost VS naturally aspirated whats right for you" convinced me not to get the EcoBoost engine that I was on the debating on, especially when he stated his company is phasing them out for their rough duty application.

For your shop. Invest in a on vehicle brake lathe. Would speed up your service. I still like to keep mine thick though to help with heat movement.

Great video thanks for posting. Would this be the same on my 2015 XLT 150 passenger van. Also do you need to take the lid off the brake fluid reservoir under the hood before compressing the caliper?

if you didn't add any fluid since you did brakes last or it was new no.
