I M about to install those in 2 days. Glad i found this. Wonder if it marks driver passenger like it does for rotors. Parts are coming tomorrow. And yeah, the original calipers on my car has bleed valve upward.
Exactly. Is it too hard to just compare the parts and not assume that it will fit because it said so or it seems like it? I had this happen with myself a few times.
I can see the sticker , just not what it says . Haha , but with that said … this is the best way most of us here learn . By trying , goofing it up and going nuts for awhile figuring it out . And when it’s something this easy to fix and seems so simple in hindsight we feel like a loony toon . But you never forget the lesson !
I just ordered 2 right side brake calipers :D Have no time to wait for the left one, so if it gonna fit, I gonna try to bleed the caliper of the brake disk with a hose and spray bottle
I have these on the way for my acura tl. Im going to put as much masking tape as I can to avoid brake fluid getting on the red paint. You think thats overkill?
Hey man how’d that setup work out for you? Been looking for updates on how these caliper kits hold up before I purchase them but can’t find anything on them.
Bin there done that's a ✔ off the bad list. And the worst part about it. It was that i knew about that and I double checked before putting them on and i still messed up. That's like a bad day and the mind not working. Maybe i was freezing or really tired or just having a really bad day.
For a novice do it yourselfer it's a common mistake 😂 But if you're an above average shade tree mechanic or you actually work as a tech somewhere, you better know that there is a left and right side caliper. Regardless a tech should definitely know the bleeder screw goes up or you'll never get the air out. But then again your everyday tech will make mistakes. No one is perfect...lol.
thank you! I did the same thing! I really like how you said dummy. it applied to me perfectly!
This weekend I learned this lesson the hard way…after trying to “bleed” the brakes for two days.

Don't worry man.. ended up putting a master cylinder on thinking it was bad.. but nope upside down caliper 😂
Do i need to upgrade my master cylinder if i want this setup
@@victorcordero1458no unless theirs something wrong with it
@@victorcordero1458not at all
i wish i had seen this before my install!!! i hate taking off and re-installing 37x12.5x20's in 110 degree heat
Thanks! Im about to do mine, and you saved me the possible mistake.
Dude you just helped me figure out my issue!!!
Thank you
Planning on doing this literally next week to my suburban too so happy I saw this video because I would've gone crazy 😭😭 thank you!! 🙏🏼
If I'm not mistaken, they should of been marked. I definitely remember that the rotors were
that’s one of the first things they taught me at my shop bleeder is always UP!!!!
SOB!! Thanks for saving me some time and money 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Was just about to order some, thanks for the tip
That dummy felt personal 😂
"Son of a bitch, you're welcome"
Instantly subbed !
That is why you look at your parts before you start
Exactly. Is it too hard to just compare the parts and not assume that it will fit because it said so or it seems like it? I had this happen with myself a few times.
I noticed as soon as I pulled mine out of the box and put them side by side
Just ordered a kit today glad I saw this
At least you're honest buddy 😅😅😅😅
Rotor is also on the wrong side . Slotted rotors ARE directional . Also SPECIFICALLY for the left or right sides . Good luck y’all .
I hope he noticed this before completing
@@TheGhettoCowboyOG notice the sticker on the rotor says drivers side front… the calipers however were not labeled. Honest mistake.

Been searching for this video thanks big hell
Good call brotha
Thank you for the Info' good to know.
Yes, I did 😂 thank you sir
Haha thanks! I’m a dummy too. Saved me a trip to the brake shop 😂
I just ordered mine, thanks I probably would have done the same thing if not for my luck. 😂
Bleeder always go up
Thank you for the heads up!!! 💪
Thank You

Thanks for the honest heads up!!
Thank you.
Your disc brake rotor on the wrong side. The forward rotation should be with the groove lines going forwards. Not trailing.
I respect it i never heard thsi and ive done mad brake jobs😂
Hey man how’d that setup work out for you? Been looking for updates on how these caliper kits hold up before I purchase them but can’t find anything on them.
Thanks for this!!!!
Thanks! If a mistake can be made, I woulda made it.
Lol brev i changed everything in the braking system to find out i did the same thing lol 😂
Thanks man
😮thanks bro 👍
Always take pictures before you remove parts …
I’ve done the same😂
good rule of thumb with learning bleeding, your only out more fluid, more time, thats the worst that cn happen
Damn it! Gotta do it all over again.
High performers rotors are left and right too Keep that in mind
I like this dude😂

Lol. Thanks!
Is this only for suburban
Do these make a big difference in stopping?
Can u run a 15” wheel?
Wish i saw this before i did my brakes... Would've saved me an hour at LEAST.
Rusty ass jack stand nice safety
It’s OK looks like you’re gonna need some more grease on those pads and calipers anyway
I came close on my ford raptor once
Damn I know I did something wrong
I went and bought new break booster put new lines new pedal 😂😂😂 I’m so mad 😂😂
Some
things you just don’t tell.
Thank you that stinks!
I’m on 32” wheels so needed extra stopping power
lol 32"s on a challenger! Nice!
He didn't read the destructions! 😅
Lol I did the same c❌❌❌
LOL ROOKIE!!!!
I did it too…..going too fast
You should put the tools down and never touch them again.
@@charleshoover8508 you’re a tool, so there’s that.
I have power stop for my 2015 challenger & my calipers pin has went out twice now Have you ever had this problem?
no, still going strong
A lot of videos I watch the installer uses the old (original) pins. This may help....
Just regular American service
Bro I get driver side wrong but the all 3 are good
My set father did the same shit with his suburban took then a day to figure it out😂
Well fk!😂😂
yup

Maybe instal you rotors the right way too
Hey dude it happens, learn from our mistakes and move on
Lol thanks😂😂
😂😂😂yea thanks man
Pay attention to how you yake things apart
How have the calipers held up? Hows the paint holding up?
Still look great, no complaints!
Lmfao. Yes, put the left caliper on the left side. And the right caliper on the right side. Brilliant. Truly brilliant.
Lol, This was my first time installing calipers and they weren’t labeled. Figured someone else was scratching their head... hope this helps 🤣
Your rotors are on wrong slashes face foward
Omg thx 😂
Just because power stop said anyway can did it don't actually mean Anyone Can Do It
READ A TEXT BOOK ROOKIE
You’re right!! I did it twice, l”m a bigger dummy, better yet a dam Jackass🦓 see what l mean😮
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 noob
Ha. You're not the first.
Everyone knows that?!?! Lol
