Elevate the one wheel safely and place jack stands under the truck as a safety. Remove the wheel, the lug nuts are 21mm. Pop the cap on the master cylinder to relieve any pressure.
You’ll need to remove the metal string wire retainer for the pad pins first. Simple push the hook side down, then pull it back through the hole. You may need pliers to remove the wire retainer from each of the pins.
Using a round punch, it’s best to start with the bottom pin first. Pliers can be used after to remove each of the pins. Then pull out the anti rattle clip and make note of it’s orientation.
Before removing the pads, I always find it easier to push back the pistons using larger interlocking pliers. Now the old pads should lift out by hand. If they’re binging, you may either have rust or dirt build up on the caliper which would need to be cleaning using a wire brush.
In order to remove the caliper, there are two 17mm bolts connecting it to the steering knuckle. These bolts will be tight so with the wheel angled out, you can easily get a johnson or breaker bar in here. After they’re loose a 1/2” ratchet with a regular socket gains access just fine.
Remove the two bolts. And then lift off the caliper. Tie the caliper off caliper using a bungie cord. And now remove the rotor which simply sits in places.
It’s important to compare the old and new rotors to ensure they are the same. For rotors, these are Bosch’s QuietCast premium brake rotors are 100% balanced for smooth operation and have a bi-metal aluminum zinc coating to help prevent rust, give that clean rotor look especially on vehicles when more open wheels while providing a long life. Due to the new coating, these do not have an oiled coating so there’s no need for cleaning during the installation process.
Install the rotor. You can install a couple lug nuts to help hold the rotor in place, making the installation of the caliper and pads much easier. Make sure you do not get any oil or grease on the braking surface of the rotor, otherwise this can cause issues. If you do, use brake cleaner and a rag to remove the oil or grease residue.
Next install the caliper. The torque specifications for the caliper to steering knuckle bolts is 90 ft lbs or 123nm. If you find your bolts are rusty, clean the threads using a wire brush and a medium grade threadlocker can be used here.
The inner and outer pads are the same, it’s a good idea to compare the old and new pads to ensure they are the same. Make sure the pin holes are facing out and the small radius cut in the backing plate of the pad is facing towards the hub side. The pads should slide in easily with no binding.
The retaining pins have also been cleaned up using a wire brush, there is no need for lubricant on these as dust or dirt can stick to the pins and risks having grease drip on the braking surface.
The spring clip has been cleaned up as well, inspect for any damage such as crack and replace if necessary.
Install the top retaining pin with the spring clip, the hook portion faces towards the top. Push down the spring clip, then install the lower pin. These pins should have a sliding fit. They may need to be rotated to positing the wire retainer holes in the correct position. Then install the wire retainer.
And push the hooked portion in the caliper hole.
Make sure the hub surface on the wheel is clean, use a brass wire brush if needed and then install back onto the truck. The torque specification for the wheel is 85ft lbs or 115nm, however this may vary between years of trucks.
Moving onto the opposite side. Do the same for the other side.
Once the truck is back on the ground, reinstall the master cylinder cap. Then pump the brakes to ensure they are in the correct position and your truck won’t throw any brake codes.

Excellent video! Thorough yet concise, exactly what I'm looking for. And thank you specifically for showing what happens when the wrong pin is removed first.
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the feedback :)
I went out n changed the rotors on my 98 Tacoma as a result of watching this! TY!
Awesome to hear and thank you for the feedback :) I have plenty more Tacoma videos as well.
Thank you much! Pads needed replacing on my '99 SR5 and I had no idea how to start. With your well-shot video and 90 minutes, I have good brakes again.
Glad it helped and thank you for the feedback!
Thanks for this! Started at 8:50p and was done by 11:00p. Beginner level DIY 🙋♂️. I have a working Truck tomorrow thanks to you.
I appreciate your work!!
Awesome to hear you’ve got it done! We all have start somewhere working on vehicles. I have plenty more tutorials on this truck if you need any more info.
This video was sponsored by Wire Brush
And rust eloum paint 😂
Awesome video not a lot of people do one side on video and then go over it again very briefly on the other side great work!
Very helpful! Thanks!
Follow up: I changed out the pads and rotors with a lot of help from this video. (I made a checklist that I could refer to throughout the process and that was really valuable.) Everything went great! Thanks again.
Thank you and happy to help!
Are usually do not comment on videos, especially ones like do it yourself type videos but very nicely done video good audio clear and precise instructions. Keep it up
Thank you so much, really appreciate the kind words!
Thank you for excellent detailed video my friend. You saved me over $300 of labor shop cost!
Great to hear!
The shop wanted 250 per axle to do brakes on our 2012 Tacoma
I did them both for under two hundred.
Best instructions for any mechanic work of any I have tried to follow. Flawless.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!
I always change my brake pads and today I'm searching this video on how to change the rotors. Omg you made changing brake pads so easy. What I do is I remove the caliper then start removing the pins. Then using a clamp to push back the brakes 😂😂😂😂 I been doing it the hard way for years. Thanks man. I'm subscribing to your channel.
No problem, happy to help and thank you for the support too :)
Nice straight forward presentation. Thanks
Thank you!
I got the maintenance bug when a Sears Auto stripped the oil drain plug on my '98 Tacoma using a pneumatic torque wrench in 2005 (seriously wtf). I've only gone back to a shop once since and that was to change my timing belt. I'm 280k miles strong thanks to videos like yours! Cheers.
Happy I can help :) Other than certifications, I have only ever taken my vehicle in for repairs maybe four times. Couple times for tires, once I was in a pinch in the middle of winter, and the other was for having a transmission rebuilt. I grew up around cars (my dad was a mechanic, now retired), so I can't imagine having someone else touch my vehicles. Using an impact can be common on oil plugs too, time takes the priority.
Omg! Thanks love the repeat info and video quality in showing how to do the work. Your video has been the most informative than anyone I've seen. Thanks again!
Very well done and helpful! The only thing that you didn't do that my dad did when he taught me how to do this, he always bled the break lines.
Thank you! You only ever need to bleed the brakes if you're introducing air into the system by replacing a component.
Thank you for posting this. i'm about to attempt this for the first time and it's much less intimidating now that I've seen this. I also appreciate you going the extra mile to show what happens if you remove the top pin first. These are the little extras that make your channel so great. Keep it up.
Excellent video. Just did my 01 taco with confidence after watching this 👍
Glad it helped and thank you! I have plenty of other Tacoma videos if you're seeking more tutorials.
Great video! This made changing the brake pads go smooth.
Thank you and awesome to hear!
Thanks for doing the video,about to tackle this chore in the coming days.
Very well explained
Thank you :) I have plenty more Tacoma repair videos too.
excellent well articulated, easy to understand video....thanks
Thank you so much for the feedback :)
Just did mine. I HIGHLY advise you use some PB Blaster to spray on the rotors, before you begin to take them off. My were beyond seized, and I don't anything extreme, let alone live in an area with snow or salt.
Well made video …awesome
Perfect. Made this job super easy. Thanks!
I’m ready. Thank you
You're welcome!
Thanks so much! Frist time doing Rotors and Pads on my 2001 Taco!
You are welcome!
Thanks for a very well made video, It will help me a lot when I do my rotors and pads. have a great day.
Thank you :) I have plenty more Tacoma repair videos too.
Thank you so much, never have done brake pads ever and this vid helped me out so much
Exceptional tutorial - thank you!
Thank you :)
thank u alot for the video, i enjoy doing these things myself bc its rewarding and cheaper. i only had one issue, that was getting the rotor off bc it was rusty. To get that off you have to get a bolt and nut, put bolt through the caliper bracket hole and hold the nut with a wrench while racheting the bolt towards the back of the rotor and it will pop loose.
You’re very welcome and thank you for the feedback! I have a load of other videos in this truck as well if you’re looking for more tutorials.
Yes, I think a coating in it is highly recommended to prevent heavy rusting….😊
Love the video. Very detailed and straight to the point. Much appreciated
Thanks for a well-made tutorial!! Super informative
Thank you!
Great videos! Thank you for the torque specs.
Thank you so much!
excellent tutorial, I always enjoy your vids!
Thank you so much for the support :)
Very well explained.👍
Thank you!
Thanks for the help!!!! Great instructions and video angle.
hey man thanks for the video really do appreciate it manage to knock it out in 35mins
Happy I could help, thank you for the feedback!
Very good explanation tump up
Thank you so much!
if you have a 6 lug, make sure the pads you get have the pin holes. I believe the 5 lug pads are different and don’t fit the 6 lug calipers however parts stores will try and tell you otherwise!
Super easy. Thanks
My 1996 Tacoma has a much cleaner (very little rust) brake setup than the one shown in this video. But somehow, three out the four pins were frozen in the caliper. No amount of using the correct drift punch would budge those stuck pins. The pins even started to form a rivet head from the pounding on the side that was not supposed to have a head. I had to carefully cut the pin on the inside and it was still hard to free them. The new pins I bought were slightly thinner and I know why. A little grease on those pins would be a good idea in my opinion.
Wish me luck. About to swap mine.
How many miles are on your 96?
@@WookieLove1 It has a only about 151K miles, since I also use two other work trucks. It still runs like a new truck. It could be that it sat around too much before that caused the problem with the caliper pins. It gets almost daily use now.
@Stephen K. very nice situation to have a low milage 96. I saw one with 4000 miles(barnfind situation) pre pandemic, pre inflation for 24000 in 2019.... wish I'd have purchased it! These trucks run forever.
THANKS PARTNER....JUST WHAT I NEEDED!
Awesome to hear and glad I could help! I have more Tacoma tutorials if you're seeking other repair videos.
Excelent video.
Thank you!!!
Thank you and my pleasure!
Good job
Thank you!
Thanks man! Thanks Bosch!
Happy to help :)
I didn't see you reuse the shims, did the new brakes have shims or did I miss it if you reused the old shims?
The new pads already have shims installed.
I bought premium pads from Carquest and I still had to reuse the shims from the old Carquest pads. I guess not all companies have the shims.
Well done. Noting the calipers and 6 bolt pattern... this appears to be a 4wd.
Thank you! And yes it is.
Perfect, thank you for this video
Nice concise video, Thank you for the quality! Also your truck needs some cancer treatment ASAP!
Thank you! I do have a video for redoing the frame.
Great video
Thanks!
Best video thanks
Thank you!
Awesome video 👍
Thank you!
For the video, this appears to be a grease free procedure. I followed it to a T and my brakes are squeaking. I assumed I made a mistake but I'm not sure what it could be.
Could be the type of pad material. Some have bedding procedures. Were the rotors new?
Very informative video thank u
Great video thank you 🙏
Awesome to hear and thank you!
Where did you jack it up at?
I've got a 98 with manual locking hubs, do I need to remove the manual locking assembly to remove the rotor? First time working on a truck with the hub type
THABK YOU!!
No problem!
Awesome . Ty
do you have to add grease to any parts thank you great video
Excellent video as usual. I was able to change my rotar and brake pads. Thank you for encouraging me. I have an identical truck as yours. The is a problem with my left caliper. I k notice that the brake pads does Not sit flush with the edge of the rotar. As a result the edge of the rotar "eats" into brake pad with the top portion not having contact with the rotar. The right caliper if fine. Should I change the caliper? What do you think?
Happy I could help! Almost sounds as if something isn't seated problem or perhaps someone installed the wrong parts on the truck.
Excellent n to the point!
Thank you :)
It shouldn’t change anything if it’s a two wheel drive should it?
Should be very similar. The biggest difference is the 6 vs 5 bolt hubs.
If the brake pads have not worn down to the metal, there would probably be no need to replace the rotor. How do you check the rotors to find out if they still meet specs?
That's not necessarily the case. Rotors can glaze up, warp, crack, or harder pad material can wear the rotors. If you're keeping the rotors, there's two checks. One is for runout to ensure they're not warped. I do have a video for this ua-cam.com/video/goVVZ8TLSGU/v-deo.html and then the other is thickness. Typically there's a value stamped on the rotor, usually on the outer edge where you can see the cooling fins. If they're still good, don't forget to sand them to expose a clean braking surface on the rotor.
Can you link to the rotar and pad? The bosch pad amazon says fits my 98 Tacoma prerunner looks different?
Unfortunately the ones I used in the video maybe slightly different, I know the rotors are different for sure. You should have a 5 lug truck, only the 4wd trucks were 6 lug.
may god bless you
Thank you!
Does it matter if it's 4wd or 2wd?
No, it should be very similar.
I have a 97 tacoma and with locking hubs on the front. Would that make changing rotors more difficult or same process?
I would think it's the same process. I don't think I've ever actually seen a Tacoma with locking hubs in person.
I just changed out my 99 tacoma with front hub locks. It is the same process. The hub locks need to be free (unlocked) to remove the tire.
Great video, no wasted breath on anything. Thank you.
Toyota rust . I'm angry again . Thanks for the video though .Very concise
Yep, I would say the rust is the biggest downfall of their trucks and it's a pretty serious problem sadly. No problem, happy to help!
@@4DIYers I wish they would take responsibility for it . They used faulty steel and made the trucks dangerous . They wont talk to me about it .
When you pumps the brakes at the end does the engine need to be running or off?
You can do it with the engine off.
Just as a follow-up, I successfully changed out the front brake pads on my 2000 Toyota Tacoma this afternoon thanks to your informational video. Thank you again for the information and keep up the good work.
Why not re-pack, flush, and bleed while you're there? Or is that separate video?
Wheel bearings are sealing as far as I know and the brake system was already done before I bought the truck. No need for a flush and bleeding if the maintenance is kept up and there is no air in the lines.
That's a nice looking ratchet, what kind is it?
Mastercraft, probably close to 15yrs old lol.
Not the same rotor on an 04 Tacoma.
What's different? 5 lug?
I have a 2001 tacoma do i need to bleed the air out of the brake lines after this??
As long as you're not opening the bleeder screw, then no.
The pads he removed were still brand new
