90% of the cars in our shop (Ohio) require a brake job. Of those ~ 75% have uneven or seized brake pads. The #1 cause, ~50% is due to rust between the caliper bracket & shim because the brackets are made of cast iron, we see little to no rust on the pad ears (painted steel). Consequently we apply grease between the shim & bracket only & replace shims 100% to stop / slow the rust.

@luciusael Ай бұрын

The rust between the bracket and the shim is the most annoying part for me in the brake cleaning procedure. To clean it optimally, I have to remove the bracket, which is a strenuous experience if you're doing it on jack stands in your own garage.

@joeyoungs8426 Ай бұрын

Agreed, I’ve always used Sil-Glyde to protect that part of the bracket and of course the pins. Definitely makes a big difference in the longevity of a brake job.

Great break down & understanding of the operation/function of each components. One thing I would say as far as lubricating the drum brakes is that the actuator adjuster has a lubricating point that need lubricant as well. The new oem part should come with a paper that shows where to lubricate plus the manuals to the vehicle should/does in my case, but like you said every vehicle may be a little different but most usually have the part that hooks up to the upper spring as too in your case. Other then that overlook, great video

@ 26:50 Pls don't forget to release the Parking Brake. 1st time I tried to remove that drum I forgot (or didn't think about it) and was fighting w/that drum, fortunately didn't brake anything on the way. Special thanks to show how to lubricate the drum brakes without disassembling them. This time I've just cleaned them w/brake parts cleaner, rugs, adjusted the wheel on the adjuster a bit and that is all, since Scotty Kilmer said no need to lubricate the drum brakes, since that surface is closed, and the lube is still there, just clean outside. next time I'm in that area I'll follow you advice.

@TutorialGenius 7 ай бұрын

You're welcome! For bushings and things like that, you would like a grease gun and a tube of grease. The bushing would need a nipple, otherwise known as a zerk fitting, so you can attach your grease gun to it. Usually the more expensive parts have zerk fittings, but not always. It looks something like this: www.amazon.ca/Fixsmith-Cartridge-Professional-Reinforced-Extension/dp/B076M14YN6

I've seen Chris Fix film on brake job, where he used Permatex Copper Anti-Seize Lubricant (#09128). I've always used it for my brakes and thought it is the best product to use for brake lubrication. May I know your opinion on that lubricant? Maybe it is very good for Hubs applications before you put the disc on, but still for brakes themselves better to use smth like Permatex Ceramic Extreme Brake Parts Lubricant (actually I have it as well). And another thing about WD-40 around the brakes. When I clean the discs, sometimes you put them on later, so to prevent from rusting cleaned already disc I apply BP Blust Rust Remover (I think it is similar to WD-40 oil). Before the installation I clean the disc circle area, which touches the brake pad w/Brake Parts Cleaner of course, how we normally do before the installation of a new disc (since it comes lubricated w/some oil not to get rusted). So is it O'K to use PB Blust or WD-40 in this manner, or it is better to apply other oil (I don't know what they put on new discs) since it is area of brakes? Thank you for the great and informative film.

@TutorialGenius 5 ай бұрын

I stand by everything I said in the video with regards to Antiseize (Even if it has copper or can withstand excessive temperatures)... The reason it can handle temperatures is probably because you can use it on things like spark plug threads etc. It's a great product, but for moving parts, no way! The same applies for WD40 and the like. I'm not really sure how to offer more information on this, other than what I stated in the video already, but WD40 should never be used anywhere near break discs. It would reduce the friction and kinda render it unsafe and dangerous. The oil-like substance on some car parts is from the manufacturer process and will have a different chemical composition than something like WD-40. I have to ask though: Why are you cleaning brake discs? When the car brakes, the pads naturally 'clean it' due to friction. Has the car been sitting?

@olenaerhardt7725 5 ай бұрын

@@TutorialGenius Thank you for a quick and detailed replay. Yes, we don't drive much, and I was working on smth else on that car. So it was sitting. But the main reason I clean the discs, bcs it is so easy w/vinegar. It cleans not only the working surface (which is not really rusted), but also all the surfaces inside, which carry some rust. I recall I did same thing on another our car (2001 Saturn SL2). If you thoroughly clean the working surface ..., there were no problems so far. You need to apply smth inside to prevent that rust developing. But definitely I would prefer to use same oil they (manufacturers) put on new discs. I'll do some more research on this. Till so far I found only "To prevent rusting on new brake discs, manufacturers apply a dry film lubricant that contains either graphite or molybdenum disulfide ". But what it is exactly? I have e.g. WD-40 dry film lubricant for tools. Anyway I spray and clean, spray and clean till see the clean paper towel, so whatever it was applied everything is removed from the working surface. I don't clean the lubricated inner surfaces (still rust is forming, but less I guess). Again of course it would be better to apply the oil, which is most close to the one applied by manufacturers. About that Copper Anti-Seize, thank you for the confirmation. Yes, absolutely new brakes I installed started to make noise like after 1 year or so, now I see why. Thank you again.

(At 22:54) TutorialGenius sprays brake parts cleaner with bare, unprotected hands. Cleaning chemicals will work well on the part, but not on his bare skin. Human skin absorbs an amazing variety of chemicals, and no one needs these circulating in his body. Concern about chlorinated compounds led to reformulation of brake parts cleaners by all brands, only a few years ago. Similar caution suggests wearing some kind of solvent-resistant glove.

@TutorialGenius 6 ай бұрын

Being absorbed into skin is a common thing that gets blown wayyy out of proportion and its usually people regurgitating the same information amongst themselves with little no no research in the matter. I'm glad you brought it up.... Is kind of like saying: "You should never smoke a cigarette, you will get lung cancer". Sure, yes, you have a point, kinda! Pulling up the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) on Brakleen for example, the toxicology information states: "Prolonged skin contact may cause temporary irritation.". It also gives you the various animals they tested the product on, its quite detailed and worth a read. You could go on to say that people who use acetone-based nail polish on their nails get acetone absorbed into their skin.... and my grandpa who is 95 now re-fills his lighter weekly gets lighter fluid absorbed into his skin now has a weekend immune system etc. It brings me back to my original point about smoking. If you want to pay for and wear a box of single-use gloves, go ahead! For an odd-job, I probably wouldn't. If you're mechanic or you do this daily, you probably already have boxes of single-use gloves.

@bobgreene2892 6 ай бұрын

@@TutorialGenius Thank you for your response. However, I did not claim that a given exposure will produce a given disease incidence. Toxicology reports on harmful risk, based on field and experimental data, and the process of systematically reducing that risk. For you and most readers, the message is simple-- do not invite risk, where possible. Among brake cleaners, for example, are compounds known to be hazardous, including benzene, toluene, and methanol. Your risk may vary, depending on your circumstances, but there is risk. Your comment about a 95-year-old tobacco-smoking grandfather and his hazardous habit reminds many of the obvious response-- just think how long he might live without his smoking hazard. When tobacco smoke was identified as a carcinogen, industry flaks issued smokescreens of denial, trying to use the same argument, essentially "the dose is the poison".
