    Guys... It's not RTV. It's CRC Disc Brake Quiet.

    • @sc5015
      @sc5015 3 роки тому +12

      Im not sure what world we live in where people dont know what CRC brake quiet looks like.
      It bonds the brake pad to the caliper and that changes the total resonate frequency of the assembly. The brake pad is bonded to the caliper with a easy to disassemble glue that requires the brake pad to now vibrate the entire caliber before it squeals, so it wont squeal with braking vibration.
      Yes you can use grease. Synthetic, of course, purple, black, orange, rots seals, go on and on, wives tales up the ass, they are applied to do the same job, just stop squeals, and your preference is yours and don't freaking matter to the next guy.
      Personally I like brake quiet on the pads as once its set, water, rain, etc cant wash it away. Ever look at the back of old pads? They rust because water got in there, and no amount of grease will keep it out unless you are changing pads every year, and that means you drive like a dick anyway and no one cares what you think.

    Growing up on a farm in the snowy, muddy, road-salted north east, I learned to love red grease. I had a rule: there can never be enough red grease. We kept a big can of it around with an actual paint brush. If I unthreaded it, I cleaned and greased it. If I disassembled it, it got cleaned and greased. Eventually, you forget what its like to fight with a stuck bolt. 30 minute disassemblies take 3 minutes. Well worth it.

    Nice rebuild, I recommend a bit of anti-sieze compound on the threads of the bleeder screws though. Plus, rebuilding your calipers does ensure it's done right, so don't apologize for rebuilding something especially when the stuff made/rebuilt today is lower quality.

      I believe teflon tape may be a better option than anti-seize. If you're going to use grease, use brake grease, because it's safe if it enters the brake system.

    Wow, a lot of arm chair mechanics here! First, great job! I had a caliper I had to replace on a daily driver ASAP. Got one at a typical parts place that was painted grey. Bought a rebuild kit for other side for future use, cause that's they way I am. The "new" grey one locked up 6 months later. Took it apart, and found grey paint over spray in the bore about half way. Must be epoxy paint because the brake fluid did not remove it. But it swelled enough to jam the piston. It did take 120psi on my compressor to remove it, and wow, did it pop when it let go! Removed paint width brass wire brush, used the rebuild kit intended for other side, and fixed. Now, no where near what you did, just a driveway rebuild. But "new" parts suck sometimes.

      I wouldn't say that, there were some calipers that didn't have a metal ring to hold them in place. The ones I thought were hard to get the dust boot seated were the GM dust boots from the very late 60's through the 80's or so. Had a machinist friend of mine see me having difficulty installing a GM dust boot and he asked if he could borrow a boot and a couple weeks later, he had made a driver for me to install them.

Hope you don't mind me adding this but I got a tip that might save yourself out someone else a head ache, when using the compressor to blow out the pistons put a thin piece of wood in between the piston and the caliper, as they can come out at some velocity and someone's the piston shatters/chips. If you're reusing them it's costly and for god's sake keep your fingers out the way of the piston.

    When connecting the brake hose line you put the copper crush washer between the hose fitting and hex bolt. It goes between the hose fitting and the caliber body to seal the connection. Of course when you fill the system with fluid and hit the brakes you'll have fluid all over the place until you fix that connection. Read the manual. Also no thread sealer on the bleeder ports, they will leak within a month of driving.

    Crc disc brake quiet? I'll check that out. Sorry for not reading the pinned comment first

    What is the name of that spray you used for lubricating the pins? I thought everyone uses some sort of grease there.

    Judging by the brake pads, you don't need that red goop stuff. Plastic piston, pad clips, it will just catch all of the crap.

    I have never seen a brake piston come out that easy.

      But it's a bit dangerous to take it out with compressed air (as you might see, how it pops out with force). Rather pressing brakepedal several times, when brake cylinder is out on disc. 🙂

    Put some copper grease around the threads of the bleeder screw, it will stop fluid coming out around the side when bleeding the brakes and will stop it seizing for next time.

    What the oven temp for the powder coat? I did calipers at 250 and it came out mush? Not clean like these.

    I've been turning wrenches now for 20 yrs and have never had to put pookie on the brake pads to keep them from making noises. Not saying it doesn't work. Just never had that problem.

  • @jamesfield5346
    @jamesfield5346 Рік тому

    I've never seen someone put that stuff (whatever it is) on the backs of the pads. What is it and why is it there? I do brake jobs all the time and can only speculate as to what it is.

    I put new pistons in my calipers once. Then, when I took it in for new brake pads about 2 years later, the idiots at Midas Brakes messed stuff up so bad, that I did not have any brakes 8 miles later!!! They said they replaced the calipers. I said, "Oh, show me the old ones." They said, "Uh, we threw them away already." They LIED!!! I had proof! When I replaced the pistons, the person helping me cross-threaded the bleeder valve... and it is funny how that one bleeder valve was STILL in the place where I left it... on my front right caliper!!!
    Word to the wise, mechanics... just because a WOMAN may pay you for your time and effort, never assume the women have no knowledge about things "mechanical." I took my car to the company because I was now working full-time, and did not have the time to do the work myself.
    ...
    And do not get me started about the time a rip-off mechanic attempted to tell my daughter that her engine was seized.... MAMA BEAR 🐻 came out and proved her engine was just fine with a 15 mm socket and. rachet.
    Oh, in case you had not figured out, I am a woman, nearly 60 years old, and now do ALL the work on my vehicles.

    Mate,, service data might say different,,, swap the pads to the other side. Worst case scenario, the bottom bolt comes out of the caliper and slow the bottom of the caliper to contact the wheel. With the pads clipped in at the bottom, this can’t happen.
