Hey buddy, great video.
Question, you said in the beginning, "Be careful these bolts have springs in them." But when you pulled them out there were no springs. Are they only on special calipers?
I meant spring loaded, means there's a flat metal piece that place spring pressure on the brake pads. There is no spring on the pin. Sorry for the for the lack of explaining. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching and your Sub. Ride Safe and have a great day.
I have a small kit of tools on my bike but I would like more tools for more "sophisticated" tasks.....do you have a tool kit to recommend?
As you pick projects to do on your motorcycles you will be acquiring more tools and every few years those tools change because that's how the manufactures want to keep you from not working on their new bikes. Any questions just ask thank you for watching and your sub. Ride safe and have a great day.
It is possible to have them in opposite positions? It was a real pain to them back.. so I had to put vice-versa
Happy to help. You might possibly had it wrong because it really is impossible to install the wrong one on the wrong side. Their index that one side. If you took notice when you were able to slide it in place that's the right one, Thank you for watching and all your support. Wilfrido. Ride safe and have a great day. Just keep an eye on it. Everything should feel smooth, no noise you know you got it right.
I had the local H-D shop replace my worn rear rotor and install new pads. Now, after 5000 miles they're squealing like a mashed cat. I mean LOUD. I watched some videos where they put an anti brake squeal product (like a grease) on the backside of the pad. I noticed that you didn't do that. Thoughts?
Happy to help. I would try with loosen axle nuts and retighten tightness. Let us know how that works out.
@@TwoWheelRocco OK. I just got back from a road trip (not on the Road King) I'll try that this week.
What if there's no pad on the inside and that piston is all the way out against the rotor? Apparently the pins worked themselves out causing the inside pad to fall out and when I hit the brakes the piston fully extended. Would I be able to get that back in?
Happy to help. Yes you can depress that piston back into the caliper. Be slow and pressure evenly. if you have to crack the bleeder screw to relieve some pressure. do not leave it open. Any questions just ask. Let us know how this works out. Thank you for watching and your sub Swayze. Ride safe and have a great day.
@@TwoWheelRocco thank you!
@@sweazy1 my pleasure. Let us know how it works out. Ride safe and have a great day.
What if I cant get the caliper to open enough to get pads in
Remove the master cylinder cap. That will help with some of the pressure. Then slowly as shown in the video with some sort of prybar. collapse the caliper pistons take your time and they will. Patience. Let us know how it works out Rudy. Thank you for watching and your sub. any questions just ask. Ride safe and have a great day.
