  • At some point, the parking brakes were worn or severely rusted, this was causing some grinding noises. The parking brake hardware was removed by another mechanic in order stop the noise. Howere, after deleting the brakes, there was still a noise caused by used or worn out wheel bearings. We are going to tear down the rear hubs and backing plates to replace the whole assemblies on a Kia Sorento.

    This is my car. The e-brakes were sacrificed earlier this year in NJ when the new rear calipers were put on. At that point, we knew we were escaping NJ and would look at either getting rid of the car or fixing it once we got down here. With Ray's help and advice, I decided to go ahead on repairs (there's more work to go on it and those parts are being walked over from Korea, apparently). It's all good, because I don't need the car right away, and I know Ray is going to do an awesome job with it.
    And since he didn't tell us... there's about 153k miles on it. And I experienced the worst sphincter pucker ever when he said "This is going well".

    Ray, you are 100% correct about showing someone the way to do something the right way. That is how people learn. Not by trial and error. This was my lesson to a flight instructor. He had me learning crosswind landings. One after another I did not get it. He said keep doing it, you will. Then I said "you do one. I want to see how you do it" I watched and I got it the 1st time after that. You can not let someone keep struggling to get it right when one demonstration gets it done.

      At the last place I worked at before I retired, there were more than a few maintenance people who regarded any advice as "band camp stories".
      Arguing with someone about how to work on a device that can kill you is as foolhardy as arguing with a flight instructor, but I encountered it many times in my 43 years.

    • @billhennie

      @@Leon-qc7feit was the comment a surgeon friend of mine told me. Surgeon’s have a big checklist of surgeries with three tasks: 1)watch. 2)do. 3)teach. I use the same approach for teaching intern and junior engineers and also used with my kids when they were learning how to write 20 page papers in early highschool. Far too much of technique is taught via tribal knowledge. The step of teaching is surprisingly important to solidify the knowledge.

    I've seen lots of comments from viewers, thanking Ray for showing / educating them on how to do certain repairs. It would be funny if Ray said to the viewers, "I'm going to edit out the repair part because I want you to figure it out for yourself.

As a newbie at that time I was not fullt aware of the other methods like drilling them out etc, or welding bolts to the broken stud and backing it out, and if i was I WAS A NEWBIE!!! you think a new guy is going to start hacking on exspensive parts of somebody elses car? no fucking way. so when an experienced guy or the owner can just come show you the thing because telling you doesnt get the entire point across seeing it in action does, and that makes it easier to deal with that the next time it happens@@MickayG

    I look at it like this. Yes Troy should learn on his own BUT it's like the old adage Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day TEACH a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Troy now knows how to remove a broken stud the proper way. When I was learning how to lay brick we had jobs where you had to lay brick with a level (building a brick lead, very difficult for a beginner.) So I got some extra brick and some mortar from a job site we were working on, took them home and practiced laying with e level. To this day I can still lay a perfectly plumb and level lead. So work ethic plays a huge role in learning.

It’s at the least that you’re doing good enough for your filming equipment and I’m ALWAYS glad to see ya. 😁😊🤣🥴😁BTW, I grew up with Dad jokes so they are ALWAYS welcome 😉

    I had a 71 Furd Pinto that lost hydraulic brakes while driving in the rain in Philadelphia on the trolley tracks. Using the parking brake, I was able to bring the car to a stop to make a left hand turn at a stop light and get off the main line onto a side street. I was attending Philco-Ford Tech at the time and was able to replace the master cylinder during the day so that I could drive home from from Philly to Flemington, NJ. That was certainly an emergency brake at the time.

    Those bearings are a whole lot easier than my 2010 Subaru. While they're not press-in, the rust had frozen the bearings in place to the point that I had to remove the entire control assembly and use a press to free it. I don't know (probably not) if anti-seize was used at the factory, but it definitely got a healthy dose during reassembly.

      A whole lot of impact gun will get them out, but will take a while. There is also a special tool you can bolt to the bearing assembly that makes it easy to hammer the bearing off and out of the rest of the assembly. Works really well for salt belt cars.

    • @johnnodge4327
      @johnnodge4327 Рік тому

      In the UK, that definitely wouldn't pass the compulsory annual inspection (MOT). If a traffic cop was to pull the driver over and found the brakes disabled (they do check for stuff like that here) they could have a prohibition order placed on the vehicle, meaning it couldn't be driven again until it was repaired and inspected at an MOT garage.
      All vehicles across the EU including Britain must have 2 independent ways to slow the vehicle, which is why all cars have 2 different types of brake operating systems.

  • @anthonyfreeman5858
    @anthonyfreeman5858 Рік тому +2

    The Emergency Brake/E-Brake/Parking Brake can be used in a situation where the Brake Pedal goes all the way to the floor. The E-Brake can then be used in the event of an “Emergency”. I’ve experienced this before, years ago. It’s a one time thing, but very handy.

    The "showing" teaching technique is far more efficient for the initial learning experience than telling someone how to do something and letting them stumble through themselves. Often, there are multiple paths to the same outcome, the choice of which to use being dependent upon a multitude of variables. I the case of the bolt, the first-choice options didn't work, necessitating further evaluation. Learning to navigate those choices are also part of the learning process, so him observing you going through them served him much better than the trial and error process he'd have had to go through without your help. That's why we have apprentices in the first place. Otherwise, they'd be just grunt helpers.

However, I was unsure about the refitting of the drum/disc in that you didn't show us the rust removal from the drum face for parking brake (i agree - is not an emergency brake). That rust would be terribly noisy on the shoes. I stopped the video at that point to comment - apologies if you correct the situation before the end.
