I was quoted 750.00 to do my Rotors and Pads on the same type vehicle, Guess they lost a customer because I can and have done it myself before. Thanks Jim for this awesome video.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING ON THIS BRAKE JOB IS THE PARKING BRAKE SHOE ADJUSTMENT SIR, YEP / IF PARKED ON A HILL AND PARK BRAKE IS OUT OF ADJUSTMENT YOU CANNOT GET IT OUT OF PARK. TO MUCH FORCE IS ON THE TRANSMISSION AND STUCK ON PARK BECAUSE OF THE PARK BRAKE IS LETTING THE PRESSURE ON THE DRIVE SHAFT BIND THE TRANSMISSION GEARS, SO YOU MISSED THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THE PARK BRAKE INSPCTION AND ADJUSTMENT JIM...

What is the torque setting for the bracket assembly? And is Locktite recommended for the bolts on the caliper assembly? Missing information on this.

Why no torque specs??????

Why mention torque specs but not torque settings.

I liked the blooper. Can you do brakes with your eyes closed yet? Those are some hefty brakes on that dude. Too bad the owner had to buy the whole assembly. Great stuff Jim.

Hi Wyatt,I'll bet I can do the brakes with my eyes closed.Wait that a great idea for a video.To be continued.

Great video. If you have a stuck pin, is cleaning the slide pin bore and replacing the pin okay? I usually pack the grease in the bore and the pin is a little bouncy. Maybe I shouldn't use so much grease.?

Nice tips Jim for rusted rotor removal. Some mechanics recommend opening the bleeders when compressing the caliper pistons to avoid forcing contaminated fluid back into sensitive ABS systems especially on modern vehicles. Do you see this a necessary?

Jim,I have heard that on some vehicles it is recommended that you open the bleed screw to push the caliper pistons back, because you may cause damage to the vehicles ABS system. Have you had any experience like I mentioned?

never back flush the fluid into any ABS bank system it can plug up the tiny holes in the ABS bank... big mistake to do that. always open the bleeder screw he just trying to save time pushing all that old fluid back into the ABS bank which is a $5000 replacement he knows that,,, my boss would fire me if i did something that stupid...

at 32:20 i see vise grips clamp on a brake fluid line ??? big no no .... can and will damage the line every brake tech knows that, they make a tool to stop flow of fluid a pinch clamp with very low pressure, and all i use is a rubber cap on the end of the line man, there is no pressure there unless someone crazy push on the brake inside of van???

Do you recommend putting Neverseeze on the caliper mounting bracket bolts?

@mattsez2879 6 жыл бұрын

i always do....plus, i was told never use standard grease on breaks because it burns, and gets sticky
