The sheer number of times I have come back to this video for reference is a testament to the quality of the information, the thoroughness of the presentation, and the inability of my brain to store anything.
Happy to be helpful, even if it's needed multiple times!
You are the only one that shows where every part goes👍👍👍thanks
Just bought a 1974 f100 and this has been very helpful as I’m 51 and haven’t worked on any “real” car issues since the mid ‘90s and puters…
Glad we can help!
i have a 77 ford f-150, not my daily driver. i have owned for 19 years. i needed to replace my front brake pads. your video was very helpful. the bearing, etc. appreciate you posting.
Glad we were able to help you out.
I'm 26 years old I just got myself a 1973 F100 fe 390 auto 2wd this video helped me out thank u I am also working on a 1986 Mazda GT coupe two door with all the goodies including digital gauge and moon roof stock.
Nice, those Mazdas have got to be hens teeth now! Thanks for watching!
Always did the bearing seat by feel. Bit me once on my old 1966 Mustang. Seized a bearing on the spindle. Nice to finally know the proper procedure and specs!
Looking at the calipers, a bolt on upgrade you may not know about is using 75-78 t-bird calipers the piston is 3/8" bigger which gives you oh most the same square inches as the dual piston 3/4 ton calipers. The only difference is the bolt that holds the brake hose on is bigger , but easy to buy. The T-bird uses a screw on hose apposed to the bolt on hose as the stock truck uses so those have to be bought separate. I know this works on the 4 wheel drive 1/2 ton trucks from this era so I would double check if 2 wheel and 4 wheel use the same calipers. Other wise if not never mind.
Thanks for the heads up!
Thank you! I am in the process of doing a disc brake conversion with 1973 F100 hardware over to my drum brake 1969 Econoline. I’ll be removing the drums in the next few days and installing everything per this video. It’s smooth as silk.
Good to know!
I do my own brakes on my 70 Z28 and still can’t believe how 2 copper washers when tight and jammed that they produce a leak proof connection. Well done video.
Thanks bud👍 for some reason I really forgot how the retaining spring went in. Growing up Dad was ford I was mopar Now ,I’m Toyota but those old Fords with that 300 mmmwwahh. Thanks
We're very welcome
You saved me on where that clip goes.
First again, woke up at 4:00 AM to watch this video, love from your number one fan.....
Morning! Even with the OSB?
Nuther good un Cuz...@ 16 min may note that the bolt is a special one that has a taper to allow the clip to "float" preventing the caliper from binding. Also if you are reusing the old bearings, when/if you clean them with solvent...
DO NOT spin them with an air hose, very dangerous, they may come apart, OK to use air to clean/ dry them, just don't let them spin when doing it. Oh, another thing, put some black on the arms.
Yeah, I now not to spin them...but it is kinda like drinkin' I know I am going to get a hangover...buuuut.
You spin the hub as your tightening the nut to seat the bearings, till it starts to get snug, then you back them off until the hub spins freely.
Yup.
Short and sweet!! Awesome!!
Great job!!!!
Thank you
😎🇺🇸I have a Mustang ll front suspension about 1976. The car is an early Ford. You saved me by showing the caliper assembly. Thank You. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Glad we helped!
Thnx from the Netherlands!
You're welcome.
I pack it with more grease in the hub good video looks great I just did this on my 76 f100 advance Auto parts can get ur them screws I had to replace mine cause one of mine was gone
i love your work,i really need a bigger garage
Video should be called "How to Install Your New Disc Brakes."
The rebuilding principles apply though. You have to go through the same machinations whether you're putting new brakes on or rebuilding them.
Awesome video 👍
Thank you
Rock Auto I believe has the bolt.
Also... You should have 'Quarantined' the Big Guy at your place... :) I'm sure he'd love the heavy lifting and Free Food!
Between him and the boys...I think I did better letting him "shelter in place" at his place.
@@AutoRestoMod True that... I've moved family back home to my place... And Dang can eat:) And have you seen the oil prices go negative -$40 a barrel!
I may have the Bendix part number for that retaining bolt. I’ll look when I get back into the shop in a few minutes.
Thanks, I ordered some but it looks to need the flat Allen head bolt rather than the standard head.
Autorestomod Manic Mechanic Gasoline Media I got tied up and didn’t remember to look it up. We use the flat Allen head style.
Jeff’s Bronco Graveyard sells the hardware kit where that bolt you are looking for is included. Awesome prices also.
Nice. I have a 72 f250 with drums. I clicked to see what you pulled the disc brakes from. A 73. Thanks
Welcome!
Thanks!!!!!!!!! Great video very informative!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
HHmm that caliper, pads and bearings look familiar to my 74 LTD. . did complete brake job on it a few days ago
Ford used that system a LOT from 1968 to the late '70s and maybe beyond.
Thank you!!
洗浄したハブベアリングをエアーガンで回転させて遊ぶとベアリングが摩耗して寿命が短くなるか、ガタが出てしまいベアリング交換になる。ハブを組む時には内外のベアリングを組み込んで入れるとハブシールを壊さない。
This is true
Been trying to put new brake hoses on front disk on 75 f 100,can't get the lip on the hose to fit the caliper. Any ideas, said on the video to us 2 washers I'm afraid that will leak.
So I’m trying to identify the Brakes on a rat rod...48 Chevy truck. Guy helping me is a certified Ford mechanic and he identified them as Ford.
Any place to get part numbers...I’ve tried all of the numbers I could find on the rotors, calipers, etc. the brake set in this video marches what I have almost perfectly. My rotor outside diameter is apx 10.75 inches. Appreciate the video
Whew, tough order sight unseen. Send a pic or two to: jford @autorestomod.com
I just put new rotors, calipers and pads, bearings on the ‘74 f100. Everything went together nicely. Until I drove the slide & tensioning springing in place. Now the pads are pressed tightly against the rotor and the rotors won’t move. Any ideas?
Those bolts are called "Caliper Guide Pins" you can get them from RockAuto for less than $3.00 each.
Sometimes I have senior moments and forget what things are called.
@@AutoRestoMod Don't we all? lol Awesome channel!
can you please make a video on how to do front brakes for a 1975-1980 ford Granada please or point me the direction of directions how to do so.
I bet I have those screws from my old brakes. I got the new ones you gave me on the wagon so I’m not using the old ones. If you want them I’ll get them tomorrow and take a pic to see if they’re the ones.
You can call ya know...
I've got a 68 and for some reason it shows the king pin is different from 75 to 79 and if I run across those years do I have to change the whole beam out with spindles
Great instructions in this video. I am doing the Granada disc brake swap in my 65 Mustang and it is a very similar spindle/caliper set-up. Would you have the torque spec for that one Allen bolt you were missing on the caliper retaining clip? Thanks.
I can't find a spec on the Key Retainer Bolt. Can't be much though (I'd say around 11 ftlbs MAYBE), pop a little purple or blue thread locker on it and you should be good to go.
Is it 22 or 25 foot pounds?
I’m asking because at first you said 22 and then 25 after.
Tab at the bottom of the brake line goes out not toward the caliper.....Ask me how I know...
I bought Wilwood discs all around for my 63 Falcon, and the front hubs come with Chinese made bearings, inner and outer. Would you recommend to replace these with good quality like Timken?
Sorry to ask a stupid question I am currently rebuilding my dad's 71 sportcustum that he left when he pass will that brake set up work on it I am new to old truck and trying to keep it alive and can't find disk brake at autozone or oriley
www.fordification.com/tech/Ibeamsspindles.htm in fact the Fordification site has LOADS of good information on those trucks. The brakes we are using are from a 1978 F100, as outlined on Fordification.
We are just a few hours apart. Can I just drop off my 70 F100 and you can do the same for me? Haha
Ill take that “like” as a yes!
Is the king pin diameter the same from 68 to 79
What if my caliper sticks is there anything I can do ?
What’s up with the disclaimer about where to put the copper washers vs. where he put the copper washers?
Cause I did it wrong.
This front spindle knuckle can fit into ford truck 1949?
No you'll probably have to find an aftermarket kit for that truck. There should be one out there though.
Question. I have done this and had to redo it a few times because there is a horrendous scraping coming from my front passenger wheel area only when the wheel is spinning. I have redone the bearings many times, replaced every brake items. I always notice when I put the spring and retainer in, that after it's all tightened down I cannot get the rotor to spin well, it is super tough to spin. But if I take the retainer and spring out it spins well. I'm not sure what to do
Could you send me some pictures of the issue? jford@autorestomod.com
@@AutoRestoMod there isn't really anything to show, it all go3s together but the grinding issue just doesn't stop
So I guess you ran out of 'Passion Pink' paint?? :) Or Purple Nurple?? Love the part #s listed in the video!
Both! Would be fun to put pink on the Beams...
Did the new rotor come with the inner bearing race already installed or did you installed the races off camera?
It came with the races installed.
bought all the parts for my 77 F150 and after installing the pads and caliper my rotors are locked up. What should I look for as the problem? I do not have my brake lines connected yet.
Check the piston depth. Make sure it is fully depressed.
Are you sure that you put the Hydraulic line on correctly? I have 2 trucks here and I saw another where they are opposite of the way that you installed it. I watched the video just to know I was doing the line right with the copper washers. Now I’m not sure.
Please Advise. Thanks
I can't say if I am or not. That is how the old lines were on the calipers and who knows if those were right. Lol. In the immortal words of Jeremy Clarkson: "I was on the internet and I found this: www.google.com/search?q=1976+f100+disc+brakes&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwjL3PvBzaHtAhXOKlMKHTutCPoQ2-cCegQIABAC&oq=1976+f100+disc+brakes&gs_lcp=ChJtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1pbWcQAzIFCCEQqwI6BAgeEApQmKABWP6qAWD8sQFoAHAAeACAAZ0BiAGdBpIBAzEuNZgBAKABAcABAQ&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-img&ei=t1rAX4ulMM7VzAK72qLQDw&bih=560&biw=360&client=ms-android-verizon&prmd=sivn#imgrc=09gQOKY_Xqw6cM
The brake lines on this set are facing up.
Having problems with my lowered 79 f100. The pitman arm is hitting the tie rod. Any suggestions?
Short of raising the truck a little or doing a Crown Vic swap you are kinda out of options.
did some 79 f150s have drum brakes up front? I am looking at a 1979 4x4 F-150.
Thanks
Never
Ok Thank you.
So do I have to buy new spindles and
I beams new if they don't match??
If they don't you'll need to source I beams from the same year truck as the brakes.
Once you get the caliper on shod the rotor move freely or would it be tight? Thanks!
It should spin. If it doesn't that means the caliper is slightly deployed. Once the brakes are bled the rotor should spin freely.
@@AutoRestoMod Thanks! Hope you are feeling better!!
I have a 71 F100. Looking for a source of junkyards that have F100's?
Most anything that's going to be nice is either going to be in the Southeast and that's basically South Carolina overthrew Texas or in the North West especially out of especially out in farm country and areas like Nebraska and stuff like that.
How tight should the caliper be once seated? I just did the calipers on my 84 tonight but it seems like the caliper should slide back and forth a little easier then it does. Any input would be helpful, thanks 😀
It won't be really easy. But it should move.
They self set once u brake
What year was your donor truck? I’m guessing late 70’s based on the dust shield.
1978 I think.
Do you think stock brake set up and spindles off the 68 will work on a 63 f100?
The 63 is a straight axle truck, check out Master Power Brakes.
Why do the brakes on a 78-79 Bronco suck so bad? I understand when you go with oversize tires, but they seem to be an issue with something as short as a 31" tire. I'm making the F350 Booster and MC swap. Any input on why the original parts are so inferior would be appreciated.
I don't know that they are, I'd look to my bleeding proceedure and or my booster if the brakes are hard. email me at : jford@autorestomod.com with more info and we can discuss.
Question I have a 1971 ford f 100 and I have the disc brakes suspension from a 1973 ford f 100 will that suspension fit in to my 71???
Yes if you have the i-beams from the 73. It can work, but sometimes the spindles and the I beams don't match up to the steering stops.

Gracias por las amables palabras.
Espero que el traductor de Google haya hecho esto bien.
@@AutoRestoMod you nailed.
Does anyone know if these part numbers would fit a 1972 Torino?
I'm not sure. I do know that Ford used a lot of parts across the board, and the stuff LOOKs like the parts for a Torino...
What's the part number for the inner bearing seal?
TIMKEN 4148 I think. Ford is weird on all this stuff. There are some changes. Best call NPD and chat with them.
Does the caliper slide back and forth or is it stationary?
It is stationary.
@@AutoRestoMod I wondered because I put new pads on mine and now the brakes drag a little... They don't let up as fast as they did.
The missing screw you mentioned around 15:45. Mine broke sheered. I need to extract and replace. What exactly is the specification so I can pick up a set. Thank you

Yeh I wasnt going to paint either. Lol
I'm now looking at the spindles and realizing how nice they look compared to the I-beams...maybe just a little cast coat?
@@AutoRestoMod thats the way it starts
@@AutoRestoMod And while you're there...
good show but you tend to talk too much like most utubes....and where is the grease.
How about for 4x4 ?
Good one. We will have to try and find a 4x4 to do something with.
Always did the bearing seat by feel. Bit me once on my old 1966 Mustang. Seized a bearing on the spindle. Nice to finally know the proper procedure and specs!
Nice. I have a 72 f250 with drums. I clicked to see what you pulled the disc brakes from. A 73. Thanks
