I thought the exact same thing when he mentioned the one-time torque to yield caliper bolts 🤣, but he didn’t replace the brake pad shims LOL, cmon GM! Great video, getting ready to help my neighbor with his brakes lol, I drive a Mopar product so I don’t need to replace my bolts lol. I also noticed the rotors have bearing on them???
Nicely done. I really appreciate the torque specks & the 90deg stretch requirement. To answer his question about bolt replacement. If a bolt is torqued & set to a stretch requirement, that means the design engineers calculated the assembly stresses & determined the strength required to hold those components together. Reusing a stretched bolt, is not advisable, ever. The bolts are not expensive, & we are talking about your brakes! You want it done correctly. Getting there is half the fun. Being able to stop when you arrive is the other half. & if you can't stop, it ain't no fun, at all.
+Not Telling There are both caliper bracket bolts as well as caliper guide pins. Starting 6:50 in the video he begins to tighten the bolts that we are referring to. Hope this helps you out.
@@1AAuto Thanks. Yeah, I found them on rockauto. I replaced the pins and bolts on the front, but I could only find the pins for the rear brakes and not the bolts. The rear bolts on my 2014 1LT are different than the front caliper bolts, and I couldn't find them online. Interestingly enough, the replacement bolts that I ordered had a different head size but same length and threading.
+bustinskullz07 It may be a different procedure on your application. We currently do not have an auto repair video for this particular year, make and model. Thank you for asking. 1aauto.com
If you are looking at this, move on to a video that explains everything that needs to be done. If this is what they offer in advice, I wonder what their parts are like?
+Mohamed Ali Thanks for checking us out! We would need some further information to determine if we have the correct rotors available for your application. Please feel free to reach out to us at 888-844-3393 and a customer service representative will be able to further assist you, thank you.
I am being told to replace the bolts for the bracket and caliper, and then 30 ft-lbs and 90 for both. You only did 20 ft lbs on the caliper bolts, is that correct?
+Junior Rodriguez Here's when you should bleed your brakes: When your brakes start to feel spongy. When stops are taking longer and feel less sure. If you find a leak. If you're replacing worn brake pads, which can cause air to enter the master cylinder. If you change your rotors or pads.
Because they're under a lot of pressure due to the high amount of torque, and given the material used to make them, they become deformed. I suppose it's a safety issue due to the possibility of them breaking, or perhaps not functioning properly when deformed? I'm no mechanic, so I can't speak to the possibility of failure.
After you have torqued your bolts to the torque specifications (whatever the manual specifies), you must then turn each bolt an additional 90 degrees. You will find that these bolts are extremely tight, and you will need to put your back into it to get them to full spec. There are certain tools that measure the exactness of the angle in which you turn the bolt, but I just eyeball mine (it's a right triangle or full quarter turn of each bolt).
Bunch of misinformation. The bolts DO NOT need to be replaced. The caliper slide bolts are only supposed to be snugged, and the bracket bolts again no torque spec just need to be snugged. If you so choose you can use red lock tight for added insurance.
They only changed the brakes. The video did not say bleeding the brakes. Maybe someone had already bled the brakes before and it wasn't necessary this time. Who knows.

Pete H depends on how many miles are on the car, my girls camaro had 100k on the car before I changed the original pads and rotors, so you better believe I flushed the whole brake system. But bleeding that you are talking about is if you have to remove the calipers, he did not do that here, so there will be no air. But it is good practice to flush the brake system all the way through the whole car.

Also when you change your oil. Keep in mind the engine is one time use. So get a new one

You guys talking about the guide pins or the guide bolts? I see a set of guide pins on rockauto, but there's nothing about bolts on there.

@@nottelling4828 Did you actually find the part number for the rear Bolts? I've been searching for them for a while now.
Do my new rotors and pads come with the 1 time use bolts
I noticed one of the caliper slide pin bolts have a rubber tip. Does it matter which side they go on? (Top or bottom of caliper)
Would changing the brakes be the same on a 2015 Chevy Camaro V6?

Keep it up dudes u guys rock 🙏🏻
Nice and clean job, I wander if available front and back break rotors part number for zl1 2013
And thanks.

Are the torque specs the same for the 2013?
Is bleeding the brakes necessary
+Junior Rodriguez Here's when you should bleed your brakes:
When your brakes start to feel spongy.
When stops are taking longer and feel less sure.
If you find a leak.
If you're replacing worn brake pads, which can cause air to enter the master cylinder.
If you change your rotors or pads.
Why are the bolts one time use?
I use the same bolts.
Because they're under a lot of pressure due to the high amount of torque, and given the material used to make them, they become deformed. I suppose it's a safety issue due to the possibility of them breaking, or perhaps not functioning properly when deformed? I'm no mechanic, so I can't speak to the possibility of failure.
They aren't there is a bunch of misinformation in this video. There are no torque specs on the brake bolts. Nor is there a stretch requirement.
What does he mean add 90 degrees to each bolt
After you have torqued your bolts to the torque specifications (whatever the manual specifies), you must then turn each bolt an additional 90 degrees. You will find that these bolts are extremely tight, and you will need to put your back into it to get them to full spec. There are certain tools that measure the exactness of the angle in which you turn the bolt, but I just eyeball mine (it's a right triangle or full quarter turn of each bolt).

Will they fit a 2011 ss
great video thanks!!

Zalo A If you do not open the master cylinder, air is not introduced into the system, thus no need to bleed......... good day!!!
does 1A Auto sell the caliper bracket bolts, guide bolts and shims? can you provide a link?
+Joe Neal We currently do not carry these particular parts for this vehicle. Thank you for asking. 1aauto.com
1A Auto Parts do you know what part number the front caliper bolts are
Torque the bolts to what?
Is this the same process for 2015 v6 camaro?
It's the same
Good video but, There's no need to get new bolts or torque them. to technical. what do you think were driving here a nascar or a nhra dragster Lol.
My rotors are not bumoving at all been banging for hours

Don’t forget the torx screw
Chop chop judo flip.
Lmao I use the same ones tf🤣🤣
arn't you suppose to bleed the brakes
