Stuck Caliper Slide Pin? A Quick Brake Service Tip - How To DIY

In this video I show a tip I have used for well over a decade when servicing brake caliper slide pins, if you have an anti rattle rubber on the end of the slide / guide pin it can become swollen and stuck or jammed in position and not function correctly. This can be rectified by following these simple steps with no parts needed.

A 2 minute video saved me a lot of time, effort and money. One of my slide pins had seized and already caused uneven brake wear and the disk to wasp due to the brake being stuck on. This saved me from trashing my new brakes and from buying a new caliper. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for posting this video! I was doing my first brake job on my 2005 Subaru Forrester and I was struggling to get the upper pin with the rubber sleeve back into the brake caliper. I tried over and over and couldn’t figure out why it’s slid out fairly easily but refused to slide back to its home position - even when cleaned and greased. Then I watched your video and did what you suggested - just cutting a 16th of an inch off the end of the rubber sleeve. And suddenly, it slipped in so easily! What a great trick! Thank you so much!

This same problem happens to Motorcycles - There's a Tab on the inner housing of the caliper that holds the Pad next to the pistons, and that metal Tab was rubbing on the Rotor. Took a bit of searching to find out why, and then 2 minutes later on a car site (this video) I learned how to fix it - Thank you so much!!! :0) 2009 DL1000 V-strom Suzuki (Right side caliper)

@jamesturnure9735 9 ай бұрын

Great video and thank you Gerard! Having just experienced a frustrating situation with Toyota caliper brackets that use the rubber bushings on the guide pins, I wanted to share an important enhancement to your video. The inside diameter of the rubber boots is a critical dimension and if the retaining groove is not properly cleaned to remove scale and dried lubricant, the ID of the boot will be too tight and tear or push the rubber pin bushing away from the guide pin. Use a pick or pocket screwdriver to remove all contamination first before installing the boot. Coat the guide pin with silicone grease (such as AGS Syl-glyde) and the pins will push in just fine. Learned this the hard way and hope this will help others!

My wife bought a used car recently - the previous owner had installed drilled and slotted rotors - but there did't seem to be any braking force until the pedal was pushed about half way down. Although I have done lots of brake jobs, I had never experienced that particular symptom. Since we were having some other work done at the dealer I asked them to look at the brakes. They said the slide pins were seized and actually did not charge us for that part of the repair - and the problem is solved.

Some of these caliper mounting brackets cannot be ordered and can't find them in a junkyard like my 2009 Nissan Cube bracket. That's why I had to purchase a propane torch from Walmart for $18.00. Heated it up and used locking pliers to back out that seized guide pin. Just don't dump it in cold water but let it cool naturally after getting a "seized" pin out. Thank you Gerard for the upload.

Hi. I’ve been chasing a noise in the area of my front passenger tire for about six months now. (2018 Ford F150). It’s a loud clanking when I go over bumps yet if I apply any type of pressure to the brakes it will not make that noise. They have replaced lower ball joints, tie rods to no avail. They have also taken off all type of shields. My friend at work wanted to take a look at it and he said that the bottom slide bolt in the caliper wasn’t moving freely. Would this be causing a loud clanking noise? I’ve had it at ford twice and my mechanic twice and nobody can figure it out. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Ty

@jordnot 9 ай бұрын

I had 3 be completely frozen, the trick was to remove the rubber boot (none broke) and then apply heat on the socket until smoke comes out, at that stage start trying to spin it while heating and wait for brown smoke to come out. Heat and spin until it rotates freely and then hammer it out. Hammering before these steps did nothing and i spent lots of time on the first pin. I also read that it can shoot out because of gas pressure from grease when heating but i only had rust inside and no grease to melt

Hello David, Thanks for watching. Regarding the question I can only just speak on why I think that is but I can't say I have spoken to designers/engineers to be certain of this. I have noticed over the years that different caliper designs distribute pressure differently when the brakes are engaged, some seem to visibly display uneven pin pressure when the brake is applied and the caliper almost rocks more on one side/pin. This is why I believe the rubber is only needed on one side, I hope this helps.

@aaronmizzou Жыл бұрын

This just happened to me. I Jimmy rigged a puller to slowly pull the thing out using the bolt at the end of the pin. I got a big 1 inch socket and put it around the pen up against the bracket. Then put the bolt up against the 3/8 in side of the socket and crank away with a rachet. I had to then take up more space by using a couple channel locks as the guide pin slowly would come out. Probably not describing this very well but the key is to use the bolt as a puller by figuring out the proper way to anchor the pin. Happy pulling! 😊

Can you help me please? I have problem with my guiding pins. I clean the wells with WD40 and Q-tips. Then I use the SilGlyde lubricant, I put very little, very thin layer. And yet, next time I check, guide pins are seized. I noticed that the rubber dust boots on the top make airtight seal. Yes, the guide pins have 3 flat channels, to allow air to escape, but it does not. When I install them, I push all the way in, and they bounce back. One of the guide pins have a cut out near the bottom where the anti-vibration rubber rings should be. If I put these rubber bends, I can not push the guide pins at all. They get stuck at the base of the dust boots. Any idea? I have given up on the anti-vibration rubber rings. Car seems to work fine.

Love the earlier part of this with the bird song in the background. Just out of silly curiosity, what would happen if the slider pins either had zero grease on them, or they had super glue put on them? Would the brakes jam on when you brake, or would the super glue just "sheer"? Only asking such a bonkers question because I've heard of people doing some stupidly odd and dangerous things when attempting to maintain a vehicle 😅😝

@uploadtime1780 Жыл бұрын

It could if it got hot. Probably more likely the lug nuts were over tightened. That is really important to tighten to spec AND tighten in a cross cross pattern when putting the wheel back on. A lot of tire shops will hit the lig nuts with their air powered impact wrench on full force.. shortly thereafter you have a warped rotor and a shaking steering wheel when you got the brakes hard.

Hi Gerard. You have great videos. But regarding breaking. I have a Chevrolet Trax 2014 FWD 1.7 TD. And for 1,5 years nobody has diagnosed My issue right. There is no computer signal or error code that shows up. But My front right and rear back brakes are randomly staying pushed against the rotors whenever the brakes are used. Even it is just once. The weird thing is, it's not all the time like that. It comes and goes randomly. Everything from the hoses, to the brake lines to the saddle and supports, rotors and disks are changed out. The main vacuum pump has been checked and is OK. The ABS fuse has been tested. Meaning it has been taken out to see if it's an ABS or EBCM issue. But the issue still was there. So we put back the ABS fuse. And no one got wiser :( The vacuum membrane has not been looked at and it seems that no one here in Estonia is qualified to do that either. Not even the Chevrolet dealers mechanics at Autospirit nor Opel dealers mechanics have identified the issue correctly. They just keep changing out parts but not diagnosing the underlying issue at all. Do you have come across an issue like that? Any advice?
