This is awesome...I searched for so many videos could not find any van like mine..till I found your video. I have the same van and brakes to change, Thank you for the video and more power. God bless
Glad I could help
0:59 your pins are seizing up because the rubber boot is missing , you can see one inch of the pins exposed to the elements ,humidity and dirt, get the pins dry so quick, I had the same issue I lube the pins without the rubber pin boots , after a month I realize that the boots were missing , I bought new ones relub the pins and hopefully it will be ok, I had to use a tow truck both times to prevent further damaged, just an observation,you are applying anti seize on the pins, is better silicone grease for brakes, anti seize gets dry, is not mean to be a lubricant, is anti corrosion. Thanks for your video it helped me a lot
Nice job dude
Thanks
Hi my friend .Thanks for sharing a very good video, I always support you.
Thanks
9:01 is the perfect reason to show why the caliper bolts and the pad slides must be lubricated...
Nice work Dave !
Very helpful, thanks
I actually just needed to replace the wheel stud on a 02 caravan but this helped me big time! Because i didn’t have a 13/16th socket😂
Sweet
I use fluidfilm with similar results between rotor and hub. Going to be doing a 2002 with seized calipers and down to bare metal pads with rusted on rotors. And I have to replace the bearings too which are rusted badly. Free vehicle that was heading to the jyd and donsting to a needy family. Just did most of the engine maintenance and fuel system. These vans are luxury but I think fairly easy to work on with some pet peeves. When neglected. I got my sledge/maul ready. Lol
Fluidfilm is a great product.
Sounds like a lot of work but I’m sure you will get it done
I got a 06 that I'm going to replace the pads on tomorrow and I watched your video tonight thanks for the review good job I gave you a thumbs up😊
Thanks very much and I’m glad I could help you out
Good tip there, to lube things before putting them back on. I may take my wheels off my car and put a bit of lube on them before it's too late and they rust on.
Yep definitely need a good breaker bar. Its not fun when you are pulling as hard as you can and one beaks. Nice job.
Hi Dave, this was a good job done. My husband watched too. He changes the brakes on our vehicles too. Looked like everything lossened whith not much trouble. Now I hope you cooled off for a bit. It is hot out there.💕 NonnaGrace
Thanks, 👍
Hope it helped
Thank you 🙏🏻 so much
Glad it helped
The ones on my 2007 have not been changed for 190k and surprisingly still stopping lol
Thank you!
Glad it helped
@@ghettovanadventures Yeah, I did both front rotors and pads today...was quite easy after watching your video. The old rotors fell right off though...saved me a ton of time lol :o)
Just a little suggestion. Don't put greasy fingers directly on the pads. If you do, follow up with a good application of brake clean spray.
Point taken… Usually when I break in my new pass I burn anything off lol
He did clean his d i s c with brake cleaner you must have missed it😊
Torque rate is 2 clicks of the elbow. 1 click of the shoulder is too much.
Wow! You are just handy with everything, got a subaru that has some problems, if you get my way maybe you can take a look ;)
Stay cool out there handsome viking man, drink lots of ice water, heat stroke aint no joke
;) HUGS!
Lol thanks and I definitely want to stay hydrated
You take care
@@ghettovanadventures HUGS
Thanks for the video eh!
My pleasure
The camera was too far away several times. When you said. Now we need to get those out. What were you referring to when you said "those"?
dude I have a 2005 grand caravan , I did exactly what you did, removed brake fluid cap first, took calipers off - compressed calipers put on new brakes, both sides- put brake fluid cap back on - started van - slowly pumped the brakes , now the van will not go forward nor back, breaks are locked - what did I do wrong - how do I fix it.
Should I bleed the caliper pressure ?
I have not heard of that before ever. The only thing I can think of is your maybe your callipers are seized.
I would definitely start by checking everything to make sure there’s nothing binding
@@ghettovanadventures Thank You for your reply I recently bought a 2005 grand caravan to replace my older 1996 SE caravan -the Grand has snow tires all around- I put the SE new tires on the Grand noticing that it needs a brake job, i drove it around for a while -without doing the pads , everything was find, When I replaced the front pads the calipers spread open further out. when I put the tires back on - the rims pressed against the calipers locking the front end. I replace the tires with the snow tires and everything is fine again. The snow tire rims are slightly deeper . Thank You again
:)
What size type head have the sliding pins hexagon?
It was a t45
I found out mine is a Hex 7mm, thanks@@ghettovanadventures
