- Quick little how-to on changing brake pads on the Brembo brake system found on the Hellcats, and other models of SRT vehicles. Sorry for the production quality. Just me and a little mini tripod. Any questions, let me know

Thanks for the video. Just did this today on mine at all four corners. Definitely a huge difference.
Just getting ready to do my pads on my hellcat and glad I decided to look first. I would've been pulling the whole caliper for no reason lol! thanks for the video.
awesome dude. glad it was helpful
You guys blow replace pads and rotors with brake fluid service or sell the car broke boys
I wondered how long it would take before some good persuasion was brought out, I.e. The hammer. Thank you for the video. Perfect camera placement too.
Great video👍🏻
In the future, I would suggest installing (2) wheel nuts onto the (2) studs to keep rotor seated against wheel bearing (finger tight). This way you'll know that rotor won't wobble during installing of pads. Although Brembo doesn't apply Loctite on the center bolt, I apply a drop before torquing her down.
Good info
WOW I change these today and what a (big) difference, I drove around the city after installing the new pads and NO, dust None.
What pads did you get? Power stop?
Dude I almost thought about having these done by somebody because I didn't realize how easy it was until I saw this vid. Awesome!
Natureboy207 glad it was helpful brotha!
Natureboy207 this wasn't in the video but if you want to have no brake noises put some copper Anti seiz on the back of the brake pads what some one called chris fix he has a few videos about brakes
thanks for the great vid...did mine today front and rear
If your brakes are worn a big and the pistons are pushed out, not letting the new pads in, slide the old pads back in about halfway and use them as a pry tool. Pull or push the old pad against the pistons which will reset all 3 at the same time. If you only push 1 piston in, the other 2 may push out even further to compensate.
exactly, luckily these were new when changed. Normally Id use a C clamp and a used pad to push all in at the same time if they are pushed real far out
Yeah thats old school… my old man taught on the old calipers to take the cap off the brake fluid reservoir and stick a flathead screw driver between the pad and rotor and push the cylinder back in before taking the caliper alway off…
I was worried about this I only have 18k on my brembos 6 pot piston and wasn’t sure if I needed a special tool to compress them but they are brand new with my car

Great video. Looks very easy.
Great video man, thanks for this!!
If using same rotors you should be scrubbing the rotors with a scotchbrite pad and some simple green. Talk to HAWK or any reputable performance brake company and they should tell you the same thing. It helps remove the old brake pad material that gets embedded into the rotor. Glad to see you discussing the "Bedding"process at the end.. most do not mention this...
Thanks! Changing my pad today and this was very helpful!
no problem my man. let me know if you get stuck on anything, i can help you out
SRTMUSH do you have a link for the pads??
Disregard, thanks!
Thank you man really helped me out
Thanks brother. This helped so much
Good video bro! Thanks for the info
Thanks man. Here for my Mopar bros
Thank you for the video. it helped me with my 392 shaker
Great video, thanks man
I really do appreciate someone who is willing to work on their new car. keep it up
Thanks man!
awesome, thanks brother. very useful
Great video. I went in for new tires on my SRT Grand Cherokee, and got caught off guard needing new pads....so I went back with stock Brembo pads, as I didn't have enough time to get different pads. BUT, I'll be ready when my Hellcat Charger, and forthcoming Trackhawk need new binders!!
1NC4stroker you getting a trackhawk? I can't wait to see what people do with them. I'll probably pass on it and get a demon
Yes sir! I'll get the Hawk finalized the day Leith Wendell gets their allocation open! I'm gonna keep the Cat also. I just love my SRT GC so much, I can't pass up the Hawk!
1NC4stroker awesome man! I'll be looking for a delivery video!
LOL, I need to get some help learning how to vlog! But, I'm not gonna let them detail it or anything, as they always manage to swirl it! BTW, did you see the video by Chris Fuelling, where his Hellcat Charger got delivered on an open trailer......it was super sketch!
thats why i love these cars, they are 4 door sedans with 700+hp from factory and they are easy to work on, parts are not that expensive either(as compared to european cars)
Thanks for the video great help 👍
Nice job with the video, i think this will help people out that think this is a hard job to do. Ive been doing brakes since i was a kid and these are some of the easiest to change out, good job again brother. Oh, forgot to mention, B5 is the best!!
Thanks man! I appreciate it
Great job! SrtMush
Thanks I couldn’t have done that without this video! Mannnn were those pins a pain in the ass to get back in.. 😳😳
that body panel bending when you jack her up was killing me
Fr
Nice job man !
Thanks man, very helpful
Awesome. Glad it's helpful. Thanks brotha
dont know if it matters or not but you put that metal clip on upside down on the drivers side
great vid and info..thank you
Sure thing. Hope it was helpful!
Nice video! #Good job
Thank you for this video. I really appreciate the education
Great video
Thanks man!
Good video +SRTMUSH!
Thanks brotha!
Good Vid. What replacement break pads do you recommend?
Hopefully, when you did the other side, you remembered to compress the caliper pistons before you took it all apart. Then the pads just slip out and back in effortlessly. Also a good idea to pop the cap off the M/C fluid reservoir so the fluid doesn't pop the seal as it gets pushed back into it.
💯💯
Bubba Gumpz_Scrimpz by compressing them you mean floor the Brake pedal?
It’s as if he never changed car brakes before. Damn what a shame and he drives a hellkitty
How do you compress the pistons before its apart?
He definitely didn’t press the pistons back with a flat head screw driver before taking the brakes out but he did after he took them out because you can’t put the new pads on after without pushing the pistons back in but he definitely didn’t open the resivor cap but hopefully he does the next time and so on.
How about a rotor replacement video ? Also how many miles did the brakes last you
Thanks for this video, please post move!
Does this relate to Scat Pack 4 piston Brembos? Are they technically the same? Got some grinding going on.
Speaking in millimetres, warms the heart. At least you're not all stuck in the stone age. Great video 👍
1:07.... just watch the body compress, don’t ever jack the car up like that
Yeah, that's going to leave a mark.
Damm it !! I saw it too and i was like fuckkk ayy!😕
You can do that but he had it on the very end of the plastic I dont know why he wouldn’t feel with his finger as he jacked it up to make sure it wasn’t catching the plastic
Does the car have a legitimate jack point? Seems like they all come with fix a flat garbage instead of a jack and spare
when you change your oil does the oil cooler feel loose or moves easily ? I'm not talking about the drain on it just the cooler .
How do you figure out the correct fit? Looking for replacement pads on my 2104 Superbee Charger brembo pads.
😢😮This looks easier then I thought 😅😂
thanks for this! saved me lots of cash!
thats great man, exactly why i made it. Trying to help my mopar bros out!
+SRTMUSH hey do you know if those pads are cermaic? I own a 300 srt8 and have the same issue. thanks
+jboozey1 yea they are ceramic. Or at least part ceramic zero dust to date
+SRTMUSH wow that's great. I definitely plan on doing that. thanks brother. cool channel by the way. checkin out your videos now.
+jboozey1 thanks brotha. I appreciate that! If you have a pre 2015 srt it's going to be a different part number on the pads. But same stuff just different size
What was the part number for those brake pads if you can remember I'm having a hard time finding pads for my 2020 SRT with the same 6 piston front caliber
Do I have to use new pins and clips or can I reuse the original ones
🔥 🔥 vid😎….thanks bro
Thanks for the video you are very helpful now I can do my breaks
@srtmush my bottom pin came out but top one didn't. Idk what to do at this point. Might be cause of rust and salt on roads?
Great job brother, might be the first on UA-cam
Thanks my man. Hopefully it's useful to some people. Super easy job, minimal tools. Totally worth doing for anyone on the fence. Just wanted to show those intimidated by it, that it's totally doable for anyone
+SRTMUSH Yeah definitely, you're the man
Great vid, just ordered my Z23's for my SRT. Question, do the pads come with any anti squeal lube, and did you use it? Also, I heard on the rears there is some sort of stock heat shield? Does that have to be reused on these pads or are they part of the new pad and not required?
gpounder1 thanks dude. I personally don't use the lube with the brembos. Still to this day not a single squeak. I never did end up doing the rears and I don't recall a shield on any of my previous one
Watching that rocker panel flex and cave in had me sick to my stomach 🤢🤮 1:20 - 1:40
Brooo that hurt me soo BAD
Hardest cringe I've had all week
Fakkk 🤢
Yea, that is why they make jacking pucks.
🤭
2022 807 wide body what tape of brakes I need ?? Any plz help
is it safe to use copper anti seize on back of brake pad? is it safe on rubber piston boot?
I LOVE THE FRONT DISC WHICH BRAND?
Well done, better suited for carpenter changes brakes though. Maybe some automotive type tools might play better in future tech instruction.
Point of the video was to show you don't need any real special tools. A basic ratchet set and maybe a small hammer and tq wrench if available. I have a 5ft tall tool chest with everything from power tool, pneumatic tools (compressor is weak though) to speciality hand tools. But I wanted people to see they can do this job and not be intimidated by it.
it looks to me that the bracket that holds down the pads seems differently installed
What was the mileage for changing brake pads?
Great video bro, what’s the part number for those pads??
Great video! You sure aren't kidding about the brake dust. I feel like I'm always cleaning the wheels on my wife's Charger SRT 392
Thanks Ryan! $105 to do all 4 corners. Pretty cheap
What tool did you use to take out the pins?
What Jack do you use and where do you jack the car up by? My hellcat didn't come with a jack or spare tire so I just used a scissor jack out of my chicks car.
@srtmush did you change the rotors yet since the video? What mileage do we have on the rotors until they need to be replaced? I'm at 30k miles on a 15 SRT charger
almost at 30K myself, still stock rotors, still in great shape
Thanks for the video.. I'll be doing it this weekend.
no problem man!
Suggestion, don't touch the pad surface or the rotor with greasy fingers. Just an fyi
It will grind off after a min
I know brakes are an easy fix but I never knew that bravo brakes were this easy
How's the pad life been? Do the last long or wear out quick? Thanks for the vid it was great.
Depends on how you use them, but these brakes normally go long
I have a question will these brake pads work on my Dodge Charger Daytona 392 with the 6 piston Brembo brake system if so what is the exact model number for these brakes
simeon I’d say it should. Just check out the website of wherever your ordering your brakes.
These calipers look the same as '13-14 GT500 and '12-15 ZL1 so I'm assuming it's the same procedure. I haven't done mine yet but getting close to doing it.
they probably are. Only difference may be the rotor. But if its a 6
piston brembo on a relatively new car, it will likely be almost the same
What brand of pads are these and price…? I missed it!?
You put the spring on upside down there's a bump out for the middle cross pin if you look at the spring before you uninstalled the pads and after you installed them you will see what i meen.. I did the samething on my hellcat and the brakes still made noises after i noticed it was wrong they where perfect
Use something in between old pad n disc to compress pistons
what's the part number for the pads? have a 2017 hellcat charger.. anyone can recommend a good dust free for the hellcat?
Ebc
Replace rotors also broke boy
Will these fit on a 2018? Everywhere I look say they don't fit but I don't see why they wouldn't?
pretty positive they will
When do you change the rotors. I MEAN DO HAVE TO CHANGE THEM WHEN YOU GET NEW PADS. OR DO YOU HAVE TO SHAVE THE ROTORS WHEN APPLYING NEW BRAKE PADS?????
Are you that stupid or something
Good vid, the deceiving part is the red cover. It's nice that it stays in place and after the pins and springs are removed the pads slide out. Push the Pistons back in and clean all the dust up. Put the pads back In. Sweet! I've always applied a little lube to the face of the Pistons that make contact with the pads. Is this necessary for these brakes?
nice job on the video you knocked that out in record time while watching the lil ones LOL
Haha. Thanks dude!
The part number and the quoted price sounds like Evolution pads. Is that correct?
Found the answer in a reply you made to Ladderboy... Glad I bought the right thing.
Brembos are about the easiest to change. I use EBC yellow stuff. Really stops the car better.
Great video! Have you noticed a difference in the dust output yet? I spend 15-20 mins cleaning one wheel.
Thanks dude. Yea. I'd say 98% reduction in dust. Almost non present. Only washes my wheels twice since I did this and that's because of rain. Performance is the same on the street the best I can tell so far. They seem a bit more touchy in rain.
I'm trying to purchase a hellcat, how long you had it? Any problem issues? I just subscribed!
Reynaldo Garcia thanks for the sub bro! I've had it a little over a year. Love it. Had 1 issue with the front seat leather, and the bearings started to go out in the supercharger. Both fixed under warranty
Great video... just curious, wondering why you didn't change the rotors?
Girard DuBois thanks man. Rotors are brand new in this video. Very little miles on them. Wasn't really a need
+SRTMUSH .. I have a 2015 SRT Challenger... have to do my brakes... I'm going to have to replace the rotors, what's up with all the bolts around the rotor
Girard DuBois two piece rotors. 😃 you can replace just the contact surface and not the whole hub of the rotor
+SRTMUSH ...Thank you !
I have a 2016 392 challenger I was told by the dealer it’s gonna be $2605 for front breaks are they pulling a fast one? I got it used and the breaks started squeaking 3 days after it’s 34k miles
Your just an idiot you should have bought the v6 with that mentality
Did changing the front brakes make a big difference with the brake dust..?? Thats the only thing i hate about my hellcat..
I'll find out. Just did it yesterday. But I've changed out the brembo pads on all my SRT's in the past and it's always done the trick.
+SRTMUSH okay and thank u..
I bought the z26 for performance muscle car what’s the difference between z26 and the z23
about $22/axle depeding where you buy them. "Power Stop Street Warrior Z26 Performance Brake Pads are made for high-performance street drivers who demand shorter stops under severe conditions. The brake torque of the Z26 Series is consistently higher than the original equipment. Best suited for high-horsepower cars and large wheel upgrades, these brake pads offer exceptional thermal stability with a carbon fiber-ceramic friction compound that resists fading to 1500° F."
Are the rear just as easy
I have about 8K miles on my PowerStop's....how about you. Any clue as to how long these will last with moderate to occasional sport driving??
year and a half on mine, about 30K miles, zero issues so far
So you didnt change the rotors?
Well, they're different than the ones on my Scat, mine only has the 4 piston brembo's, which takes a Torx like socket. I have to swap out one rotor, I squished it slamming on the brakes out running some super bikes...
Broke boy cant afford 2 rotrs
*rotors
@@vvallejo1990 $99 for exact replacement rotors at Napa.
Is it weird that the rotor was so loose once the pads were out? Are they providing that much guidance to the rotor to stay even or is there structural support missing because the wheel is off (that pulls those bolts through the back to the front and secure it normally?)
Riyad Kalla after taking wheel off, suggested to secure rotor with lug nuts to seat on bearing during installation to help maintain spacing for pads
just curious . thanks.
I bought a set. putting on tomorrow. quick question... what's the factory torque value for the lugs? I always just torque to 100 ft pounds.
Sweet! I think 110 is official number out of the service manual for previous years. Let us know how it goes
hey man, if you remember... can you send me a link for the brake kit (front and rear). I'd really appreciate it. BTW I'm glad that the supercharger issue got handled.
419-Z23-1405 and 419-Z23-1053 are the part numbers from Jegs
SRTMUSH I appreciate it bro.
Changed the pad on my mustang with 6 piston brembos... brake dust is no longer
A) everyone knows you have to compress pistons on any brake job to get new pads in. Hopefully you didn’t bugger up the sides trying to force new pads in the first time(s)
2) the ceramic pads still dust, and it’s still corrosive, it’s just not black.
By compress pistons do you mean press the brake pedal?
uhhh...perhaps take it to a shop.
@@jedbl7576 I realized what you meant a minute after saying it lmao, unfortunately, I got a seized piston though so now I need a whole new caliper...
#2, I'm going to disagree with you there. I have these same Carbon Fiber-Ceramic pads and oversized rotors on both my 2011 Ford Raptor and on my 2004 Mustang Mach 1, and if there is any brake pad dust, its miniscule at best. What I see mostly is just road dust. These are well worth the money. These were just put on my 2021 Challenger Scat pack shaker widebody to eradicate the huge amounts of filthy, black acidic factory-pad brake dust on the rims. It worked like a charm, once again.
Are the rear pads the same as the front part number wise?
I would assume no since if you have an SRT you have 6 piston in the front and 4 piston in the back.
Use the back of a hammer’s slot to pry out the pins g the remaining way.
do you pick your car up on the pinch weld? Just curious I have a Hellcat Challenger.
+SUPERCHARGED LYSHOLM no. On the charger there is a little spot right behind the pinch weld
I have a 4 post lift in my garage with a jack thaat slides the length of the lift... I only lift on the lower control arms front and rear.
I'm pretty sure I saw the car bend a little bit from that jack
Pretty simple.
My pistons won’t stay in place. I push one in and the other one keeps coming out . I tried holding them down but no go still not enough clearance to push my pads in any suggestions??
Use your old brake pad so it will evenly push the piston down at the same time.
So just put one side in at a time. What’s the problem?
