    Great video, The details on the pins, The correct direction of the pads, The correct order of the back plates the striped and the solid, That's exactly what I was looking for. Obviously there are tons of videos out there none of them explain the details correctly. Everyone knows there's only three screws and that's it, but what you explained was the most important part of it which most diy folks miss. Even some certified mechanics miss them.
    Thank you I appreciate it

    Not sure if this has been commented or not. But as far as the 8MM bolt. you can just use a bolt from the skid plate.

    Dont forget to check the brake fluid reservoir, loosen cap to release any pressure as your compressing the caliper to make sure it doesnt over flow.

  • @kassemadam3005
    @kassemadam3005 Рік тому +21

    If you dont have a specialized tool to compress caliper pistons, you can use the old pads and a c clamp to achieve the same thing, you just have switch around several times while compressing as the pistons pop out a bit on the other side from the one that is compressing.

    My 2020 in Southern Ontario. 90k. Pins were so rusted they were a bitch to get out. And where the pads go, was so rusted, the outside ones weren't even moving back and forth.
    Had to file down everything. Spray, and covered in anti seize. Everything is moving well, and the truck is braking a million times better

    Terrific camera work! Do the slide pins need to be lubricated? Cleaned with superfine steel wool? Similarly, do the edges of the brake pads need a thin layer of brake grease? Please excuse my ignorance as the only brake work I have done involved removable caliper pins that had to be greased with silicone based grease and then the caliper bracket had clips where the pads slide and that also needs a small amount of grease. I will look up the torque specs and leave them here. I would suggest that you commented on putting anti-seize on the wheel hub and I have done that making removal of the rotor easier next time
