  • In this video I replace the front brakes on my 2013 civic. Unlike the rears that I did in a previous video the front ones don't require a special tool on the caliper piston.
    Here are the front brake pads: amzn.to/3ONX070
    Here are the rotors: amzn.to/2NAkVXM
    Here is brake quieter: amzn.to/2LAbLcV
    Here is the impact driver: amzn.to/2NyMRLn
    Here is my torque wrench: amzn.to/2O6PyVJ
    Here is some grease: amzn.to/2zXtLgl
    Here is the jack stand rubber pad: amzn.to/2B4ZRnU

    Nice video. Liked that you included the bolt sizes, the added part about greasing the caliper slide bolts (which most videos don’t show and/or care about), and the added rubber bumper to protect the pinch weld (for those who care about scratches).
    A suggested tip. Turn the wheel to make access to the slide bolts and caliper mounting bolts easier, and it gives you space if you need to use a breaker bar to loosen stubborn bolts. If you don’t have a breaker bar, a pipe on the end of a good ratchet works as well.

    Those two metal spring wires that goes on top of the brake pads are for helping the pads spread apart from the rotor after you release the brake petal.

    Realized my fronts where grinding. Now idea how long it's been doing that, but I'm sure it can't have been more than a couple days before I noticed. Nothing in the pedal, only in the noise. Anyways, thanks for this. I know how to change brakes, but it's always helpful to watch a refresher if it's been a while. Lucky me, this was a propped video. No dumbass music or anything. Phenomenal video

    You missed two things. #1 make sure you wipe new rotors with brake kleen. They usually have a non-rusting agent on them to protect them during transport. Failure to do this can cause them to slip momentarily. Secondly, after you finish make sure to pump the brakes while in park or neutral. This extends the piston. Failure to do this will leave you with no brakes for a short time, enough to cause a wreck backing out of a drive way.

    1 caveat is that those "phillips" head screws might be JIS so you have to make sure you use the best fitting tip. It looks to me like you used the pointier bit but didn't show how it fit. If the point bottoms out it can strip out the screw.

    Thanks for the detailed video! I have a hell of a time getting those damn rotor screws out, I used the same impact drive you had and the bit broke inside the screw.. Im up in Canada and I think all the salt adds a lot more corrosion making it a lot worse. I have one question, I accidently cut into the metal of my wheel hub while removing the screw (I used a zip cut to make and X and then screw it out). Is there any issue with having some missing metal of the wheel hub?

    • @FrotLopOfficial
      @FrotLopOfficial 4 роки тому +1

      This is normal depending on the pads you choose. Metal on metal (cheap pads) cause this sound and will squeal. Slotted rotors and ceramic pads with lots of lube / brake grease will eliminate both the scraping sound as well as squeal. If you choose coated slotted rotors you will also drastically reduce brake dust making cleaning your rims and maintaining the hub assembly much easier as well. Always choose ceramic pads, coated and slotted rotors, always grease slider pins, oil the caliper, scrape-clean everything with a wire brush and nozel spray all parts with an oil (even olive oil is fine)

  • @billshiff2060
    @billshiff2060 Рік тому

    The reason the rear calipers are the screw back down type is that they are operated by both the hydraulic brake system AND the cable operated hand brake so the screw is actuated by the cable. Old shoe brakes just used different pivot points to do that but disk calipers need this system. On subaru front disks it is the same because the hand brake operates the front brakes instead of the rears.

      You only bleed brakes if you are introducing air into the system. With a simple brake pad and rotor change, there is no reason to bleed brakes
