Please do not think I am just busting your chops by saying this, but... it is so ironic that you refer to the emergency brake properly (it is NOT JUST A PARKING BRAKE for people who have a manual transmission), however, you then say that you are not replacing it because the truck is an automatic and you don't use it. But, my friend, that is really bad advice for people watching your video. The "emergency brake" is the only mechanical brake on your truck that does not rely on a hydraulic system that is one failed rubber seal (or one rust line that ruptures) away from you not having any brakes. I am grateful that you are trying to help people and that makes you one of the good guys in this world, so, please, go back and repair your emergency brake, even if you never ever use it again. It is always better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it. No one ever planned to have their hydraulic brakes fail one day.
I put some anti-seize on the hub where the rotor meets to hopefully prevent having to bang and bang with BFH next time I do this. Great video btw, I use my E-brake every time I park its out of habit driving a cdl truck where I have had to pop the PP1 valve everytime. E brake is good to have and use incase the transmission gear pin fails.
Really should start using you're parking brake it's there for a reason especially on a uphill or downhill parking cause the parking prawl with eventually get so worn it will either start binding when putting it in drive or break completely then truck gonna roll.
FYI, you want to remove those star clips when you put aftermarket wheels on your truck. Factory wheels have a relief cut to go around them. Aftermarket wheels do not. When you put an aftermarket wheel on, it will not sit flush against the rotor and put uneven torque on the studs. It will eventually cause your studs to snap.
The pins on the bracket you cleaned up check those pin slides cause if they are froze to where they don't move in in out your pad will not release properly and wear out plus fuel economy will suffer man.
Thanks for your comment, all is good on the brackets and thankfully I am always parked on flat land, the only time I've actually used a parking brake is when I had a manual trans.

Those rear drums can be rusted on and take a bit of banging to get off. I have used a spray on lithium grease when installing the drum on the hub.
Just a question.
How do you pass inspection if your E Break want hold? I’m in a safety inspection only county and they failed mine.
Idk they have never checked my E brake
@@DomsRusticGarageMore They said mine wouldn’t hold on a incline if my park break failed. I’m in NC
Speed censor is on the transmission.

You will never get that rear hub off if you have the parking brake on.

Haha that’s why im watching this video 😂
ASE and you don't know that's the ABS censor and ring.
