after taking off tire, take out the top bolt with the rubber boot, the whole thing then pivots sideways off the disk like a printer cartarage and opens enough to get pads off reset pistons and new ones on, indident change clips but they where accessable
you didn't change out the rotors, the problem with that will be a noise and the pads will not break in properly on the glazed rotor..did you peek at the rear rotor surface? Most of the time it looks way different than the front you see and you should change the hardware.
i just threw some sand in there before i closed it up to keep it smooth and quiet lol jk it's all good no rust anywhere, no squeaks went down a mountain, i'm curious to see what happens, did ya know u can use tire iron that comes with the carjack to take off the larger bolts on breaks :)
Thanks for the video this is the only video I found with dual piston brakes for town and country. Is the torque the same as single piston 126 and 26? Thanks
good video, just to add.... missing greasing the caliper pins, otherwise it may be stock the next time you do brakes and stuck caliper pin may cause uneven ware of the brake pads also.
If you didn’t pay attention to how you removed the pads off the clips on the bracket, this job is not for you..you just need to reverse the way you removed them.
@@chaotichomesteading Do NOT skip the wirebrushing as he shows in the video! The pads should be movable with just a little effort. Also, when replacing the clips, make sure you take note of which of the two clips are used in each spot. I made the mistake of mixing those up on another vehicle a few years ago; once I got them right, it was a night and day difference.
Better hack for caliper compressing. Pop the bleeder and compress slowly. It’ll be much easier to compress and outs less pressure on the system.
Up here in the Northeast with all this Rust..that bleeder could snap off and you're in a different position....
@@alyoungcuda I’m up in those parts brother.

Yes and thanks for watching too...

I always check them, if they move, I leave them alone.
Completely skipped installing the pads into the clips. Terrible.

Too many things videoed out of order.
So what order did you use to do your brakes? We will wait for your Video...
Would have liked to see you put the brake pads in the caliper. I am having a tough time getting them to go in correctly without being forced
@@chaotichomesteading when the new clips are installed, its always harder to get the new pads on for sure
