the last part I think pretty important and no one talk about it

Hi, I watched the video where you rebuild the f150 sunroof. I did all the steps but I cannot find Butyl here in California what other material I can use?

[@kerplop2263]

i think your caliper mount torque specs might be @ 130 newton meters instead of foot pounds. so that would be @ 98 foot pounds. double check your units of measurement so you are not confusing ft-lbs for n-m

E ? cdd

[@parkerwillis8072]

Owners manual says 100 ft lbs so you'd be right

Hey what camera are you using?

[@famfirstalways8051]

What size alien key is the caliper slide pins

[@famfirstalways8051]

@Ko_ Jelly yea I got it and switched it out with a standard sliding pin . I work at a machine shop so I made one to spec’s

[@douglasguido6627]

are you sure it is 130 Ft-lbs the torque? this is quite high.

[@andykapsar4667]

you forgot to open the brake fluid cap off so youre not fighting system pressure to push the caliper back in
