Excellent video. The required steps are clear, concise, and informative. The helpful hints like old pad + c-clamp + crack the master cylinder are key effort & time savers for folks who are trying this for the first time. There are many incomplete and/or useless how-to videos out there, but this is definitely not one of them. Well done.
Great help….i know how to install these it’s exactly the same process as my ‘09 Chrysler 300 3.5L but…absolutely lovely instructional video there….Thank you so much….i’d love to watch it again once i start the installation on my ‘16 Challenger R/T 5.7L 🤙🏼⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️🤙🏼
Nice thorough job - one of the best I've seen, even giving socket sizes. One suggestion - hanger or zip tie to hold your caliper or bracket securely out of the way when you run out of hands. Having the caliper slip off its perch on the hub or rotor & yanking on the brake line could ruin your day, or worse, imperceptibly damaging the line & risking a failure down the road. Quick and cheap insurance.
Awesome video! Very straight forward great voice( not annoying fyi lol) . I just installed new rotors and pads on my 2014 Challenger and this video helped out alot. Thanks for the post!!!
It is best to open bleeder valve to push the pistons back in. That way you are not pushing contaminated brake fluid back into the master cylinder. Then top off with fresh fluid.
This is a great video.. thank you. Used this video for my 2010 challenger front brakes.. I also had to change one of the glide pin rubber boots.. that was interesting.... prying it out with flat head and then pressure fit the new one in with a socket and C clamp
Good video - the 21mm bolts on my 2015 Challenger were the hardest bolts to remove. I had to use a breaker bar. Took me 45-50 minutes per side. They never got loose enough to use a 1/2 in ratchet on. I hit them with a 1200 LB air gun and they didn't budge. I needed the breaker bar for every turn.
Great video! Thorough and well-paced. I’ve done brakes many times but first time on my 2016 RT. Great video to watch and listen to before I tackle the job. Hats off to your Assistant too!
Awesome video. Very detailed. Doing this on my daughters car tomorrow. Serious question though - noticed you greased the ends of the pads that touch the hardware then greased inside the caliper. Why not just grease the ends and the back of the pad before installing? I’ve always just greased the back of the pad instead of the inside of the caliper. Just curious why you do it that way. Maybe I’ve been doing it wrong this whole time! Ha!
Am I the only one that opens the bleeders to push the piston in. You can actually push them in by hand when that pressure is gone and it gets rid of that brake fluid that is constantly heated in the caliper.
@@JacobJohnson812 Really? So "Hitting it with the breaker bar" is good enough? ''As tight as you can with 3/8 ratchet" is good enough too? Mount bracket bolts are 140 ft. lbs. There's no way you got even close to that. Caliper bolts are 44 ft. lbs. Might be close on that one. But I bet those other bolts loosened up. By a torque wrench they aren't very expensive jeez.
@@bbigjohnson069 they actually did loosen up and everyone in the car is no longer with us, including the worlds last male white rhinoceros, I thought my buddy who tightened the bolts would be strong enough since he was a three time olympic gold horse masterbator. I guess it was a bad judgement call.

One of the best how-to's I've seen on servicing a challengers brakes guys. Thank you it's been a huge help.
Really good video! Had cheap stock brakes on my challenger and now I got new ones. Best step by step video ever!
As an ex Army mechanic I got to say I am very impressed on how detailed your video was. Good job man!!!
I made this video so long ago, it’s crazy how much more I know now.
I will be changing my brakes tomorrow thanks for the video

The only thing you missed to put was the pounds of force for the wheel tighten (110 lbs btw)

Thanks for looking out for the rest of us. 👍

The best video , saved me 160$ fam
Best video on this I’ve seen so far
This is a great video.. thank you. Used this video for my 2010 challenger front brakes..

I want to have as much trust in a woman as you have in those jack stands 😂

Kinda hard on the brake hose there.
When he let the caliper hang from the hose I almost screamed
I did my brakes on my 2013 dodge Challenger RT just like you did in video and after about 30miles both front brakes are locked up.
Paul Blarts Garage did you properly install the brake hardware?
I have the same problem. How did you resolve the brake problems?
@@rickycheek2454 bought brand new calipers and rotors. The calipers where locked up

0:28 you lost my faith with the hammer. If I need that to do my brakes I will retire from working on cars
very good video
Good job!
this shoud work on a 17 Rt as well?
Aside from the bolt sizes, this video will work for just about any passenger car or truck.
Thanks bro! Would it be safe to assume it's similar in 2016 model it's? I'm a noob at all this car stuff.
Great video and just in time as I need to replace my rotors. Does your 2013 R/T have the upgraded Super Track Pack brakes?
Dana Hirschberg Music no
No need for thread locker?
no need for this comment
@@JacobJohnson812 wait so do you need threadlocker?
@@ikjotsingh2822 the driver of the car was an aggressive driver so I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea
Good job $$$
How do you get those 2 big bolts off is too hard man
1/2 ratchet or breaker bar.
Good ass video.....thanks!!
damn same year and paint
Is it the same for the rear brakes
Good video, dude clean your car...
shouldn’t sit with your legs under the car
If u want any Cred u need to give torque values. Any shade tree hack can turn nuts. But thanks for the Vid..
emsman59 I put them on as tight as they came off. Any decent mechanic has a good feel for it .
