I grease the rubber bushing on the inside by removing it or prying up on it and slipping some brake grease in the channel. Makes for easy assembly. Never get grease on the tip of pin as it will not go in all the way. This type of pin with internal threads for M14 bolts is ideal as you can slip on the boot and then insert the greased pin. Finally insert the thick end of the rubber boot in the bracket. This ensures all the grease stays in the channel and not in the rubber boot. minor stuff but makes error free servicing.
logically correct. the rubber boot has tiny channels around the diameter of the rubber and holds back a high percentage of the grease as you insert the pin and the grease ends up accumulating in the bellows. A fraction of a percent ends up on the inside where it's supposed to go. Grease the inside a little by rotating the pin with back and forth movements ensuring no hydro locking of the pin , insert the rubber boot, lightly grease the pin again and then insert the brake pin all the way allowing the rubber boot to lock into place and ensuring that the air pressure in the rubber boot has released.
One of the most accurate, informative videos among all those that often fall more under personal opinion. For this simple reason. I take the time to connect to my UA-cam account and subscribe to your channel. Keep up the good work and thank you!
At the end I noticed after you installed the pins, when you pull them out they snap back in by themselves as if something is pulling them back. Is this how supposed to work? Thanks!
Once you install the pins, use a small screwdriver or pick to pull up on the rubber boot. This will release the vacuum and pins will slide in and out freely.
@@ashwiniphatak2746absolutely correct.. pin pulling back due to vacuum created inside.. i will using o ring remover hook and create opening at the end of rubber.. then pressure will be equalized… it wont pull inward… only 5th time i manage to found this correct method
I would really appreciate if you are able to help with the rear caliper handbrake mechanisim. In regards to adjusting and setting the handbrake built in to the caliper. This i cant find anywhere? A real bug bear! Can it be solved?
Je suis en France et ne maîtrise pas l'anglais mais avec le traducteur j'ai pu pu comprendre votre démonstration enfin presque car je n'arrive pas à assimiler le fait que la colonnette avec la bague caoutchouc soit en bas pour l'avant et en haut pour l'arrière ! en fait à quoi sert la bague en caoutchouc ? Merci encore pour votre vidéo Michel JOSEPH TRAI am in France and do not speak English but with the translator I was able to understand your demonstration almost because I cannot assimilate the fact that the column with the rubber ring is at the bottom for the front and up for the back! actually what is the rubber ring for? Thanks again for your video Michel JOSEPHDUCTION
I just took the rubber out since ut was worn out and wouldnt let me to get the pin back in properly and without rubbet at the end of the pin it works fine? My question is this rubber attached the tip of th pin really must have thing?
I've heard a lot of people saying they removed them without any issues, but they're installed for a reason so I'm not going to recommend removing them and not replacing them :)
What if a new set of brake hardware comes with 4 rubber bushings and are used on both top and bottom such as in my 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500hd? Or are all 4 not supposed to have them?
Now I need a video on how to clean out those grungy holes when they are caked with some unknown crap. lol. Brakeclean only goes so far. Need some kind of brush on a drill. Hey that's a good tool to invent.
I use a bore brush made for cleaning firearms. They have brass bristles and come in different diameters. You can find them online, or at a local gun shop, and are inexpensive.
Informative and correct information without the distracting background music..good job
Thanks for watching !
Baffled me for years, now solved. Good job.
Thanks for watching !
Very satisfying small 'pop' when the pin fully engages.
Если кто не понял, то автор указывает, что спереди направляющие с резиновым уплотнением устанавливаются всегда снизу, а сзади наоборот сверху.
Mines swole with silicone grease, i just removed the elastomer it was seizing the pin. Works fine, no noise
I have done that when they are jamming the pin. No ill effect.
Well I have learned something new today.Something to look out for with future maintenance.Thank you
Cheers Mark ! :)
Cheers Mark ! :)
You're fantastic 😊
Fantastic explanation that solved an issue for me for years.
Thanks is not enough for you🎉
Thanks for watching !
Very simple, Sliding back to original location! Hopefully not same gas station mechanic swapped to wrong.
Thanks sir. I do remove this piece for all of my cars as it causes lots of trouble

For long time a was confused about the right position of the pin with the rubber sleeve. Very well explained in this video. Thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Good video thanks, i will be doing mine in the next few weeks so this has helped.
No problem 👍

It stops the brake caliper from rattling.
Я очень благодарен тебе такие видео хорошее снимаешь желаю тебе хорошего настроения
Thank you !
Very intresting topic. Thanks.

Hey
I removed the rubber from the pin and because it was inflated, I put suitable orings so the pin moves easily
There’s a chance someone used a lube that wasn’t rubber safe?
Now should listen for any noises/clicks from caliper during braking, either road and car park.
What if a new set of brake hardware comes with 4 rubber bushings and are used on both top and bottom such as in my 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500hd? Or are all 4 not supposed to have them?
Yes, some kits use them on both slide pins on each caliper
By factory mistake :)?
No, some manufacturers use them on every pin
