    I’m a locksmith and I do jobs all the time for banks on foreclosed properties and one time the bank had me re-keying a vacant house that WAS NOT IN FORECLOSURE and the homeowner was PISSED !!! And he should have been cuz the bank made a big mistake. Ever since then I’m always asking the bank to please double check and make certain because I don’t trust em anymore. What a dam mess. Oh,…. I love ole Roy and the color is different and I really like it. Thanks Puddin

    Sometimes when your working on a project you don’t always have the right tools to do it correctly but if you use some ingenuity like a bigger hammer or a cutoff wheel the results can be achieved without busting your hands or messing up a good part .

    On my project truck on my channel , i had never even done brakes, much less bearings. And mine is a 4x4 as well. It took days researching how to do it and figure out the right parts and tools for the job.

    On those copper washers for the brake banjo bolts, you can anneal them easily. Use your propane torch, heat red hot and let cool. This makes them soft so the seal better.
    I tinker with old bike. Often you can't find the right size new ones and you have to use old ones. Annealing them as I described softens them enough to seal.

    Hey Puddin , I'm watching you doing the brakes on old Roy , I'm not trying to tell you how to do your job but when you're doing rear brakes there are 6 contact points on your backing plates that should be cleaned and lined if you don't the rear brakes will squeak and it will also wear out your backing plates , just a tip from 45yrs of experience

    • @jaysonhallson-ow5gp

  • @willywill3570
    @willywill3570 Місяць тому +1

    hey puddin, in the 25 years ive done brakes, i was always taught to relieve pressure on the caliper first. open the bleeder, use a flat head, press the pad against the cylinder side of caliper and the rotor, bleed some pressure off (one side at a time). yes it can waste a bit of fluid, youre gonna bleed em anyways after. calipers dont release to full open state unless you bleed the pressure and force it. makes fighting them off a breeze. the rotor lip is from lazy brake jobs, thats why people can have the hard time getting them off.

  • @rickydonahue1586
    @rickydonahue1586 Місяць тому

    Puddin you can heat those copper banjo washers up with your turbo torch and they will get softer. Don't go too far or you'll melt them. I was a plumber for years and when I needed to make a bend in hard copper pipe I would heat it to soften it. I had that problem on my car so I heated them and BAM like a dream it actually worked.😁👍

    On your brake backing plate, don't blow them off, use brake cleaner. Put a drain pan underneath to catch the crud as it comes off. For tough stuff use brush to loosen. This way you won't get dust in the air.

    I watch so many folks just prying those calipers off the rotor without returning some fluid. If you pop the master cylinder cap and put a screwdriver down in the opening at the top of the caliper, you can pry on the caliper and it pushes the piston back in ever so slightly. Just the perfect amount to grab the caliper and pull it off by hand.
