    I'm a city boy, who's main mode of transportation is the subway. Every time I have vehicle issues other than a flat I would run to a mechanic. I've decided it's 2022, I should be able to do what others can do. I watched this vid 3x. Went and purchased brakes, spacer and ratchet. Your video played through the whole process on repeat. Only thing that wasn't covered which scared me for a moment was replacing the caliber. I had to push the piece that receives the screw back in. But thank you.

I've learned a lot and only now finally I'm like fuck I think it's time to learn more.. cause brake pads are $50-$100 bucks .. and going to the mechanic means an additional 200-300 bucks 🤦🏾‍♂️ plus any taxes

      I view it this way:
      If it's a unique and complicated issue that will only arise once or twice in a car's lifespan, then it's best saved for a knowledgeable mechanic.
      If it's a predictable, regular maintenance that your car will need several times during it's life span, then it's best to try and learn to do it yourself. There are obviously exceptions, but I generally prefer to know how to do things to save money

    2 years ago I'd never changed my own oil. This summer I did an engine swap on an 87 Samurai. Still can't belueve it. And it runs great.
    Today is brake pad changing day. This morning I had no idea how to do it. I searched UA-cam, found your channel, saw how easy it is and had them changed before lunch. Thanks again, man.

    Thank you for a useful -easy to follow video that was straight forward. This was perfect !! I can’t thank you enough. I’m a girl who never knew anything about cars and would get ripped off by car dealerships for stuff like this. They would charge 500 for brakes when in reality I can spend 90$ and change front and back brakes myself for free in literally an hour. That is very empowering!!!

    I always assumed changing brake pads required draining the brake fluid and avoiding getting air in the lines so I was always worried. Today I needed to change my brakes and decided to look up how it's done. Wow, this is a way simpler task than I imagined. Changed all 4 brake pads and saved myself $200+ taking it to a mechanic. Thanks man, great video. Lucky for me my father-in-law had that tool to decompress the caliber!

Came on here saw ur video & changed them myself. Borrowed the jack from my neighbor. So now I know how to do my own brakes. Even know how to change a brake sensor, change oil, tail lights & of course a tire. UA-cam the best. Ain’t gotta worry about asking a pervert guy or worry bout getting ripped off or worry bout having to kick it with a guy afterwards 😂

      @@shteatinggrinI'm a tradesman. You clearly aren't. So... so yeah like but like actually not. Most of the money made by tradesman is coming from those who would rather pay than do it themselves. You are paying for the fact that someone else has the tools, the shop, and knowledge and skills and warranty that you don't. That's... reality. Nothing to do with ignorance or laziness, except maybe in your case. I can change my breaks and spend 50 bucks for a 30 minute wait at a shop, or I can do it myself in 2 hours and get covered in grease and spend 30. I don't know about you but I am worth about 150 an hour. I'm a mechanic and a bricklayer btw

    Best advice is to look at the pads before removing them so that you know where they go. On my 2009 Chevy Silverado the pad either the metal wear indicator goes on the inside but what’s even better is that the inside pad has a flat edge that matches the flat part on the caliper with the other pad and side of the caliper being curved.

  • @TheWilferch
    @TheWilferch 3 місяці тому

    Nice job. Hint.....if you wish, instead of totally removing the 2 guide pins..... loosen both, but ONLY remove the bottom pin...and keep the top pin in-place to act as a "hinge" for the caliper portion you removed.....in this case just swing it up and tie it down so it doesn't accidentally swing down whle doing the work. You still have full access to remove and reinstall the pads.

    I had some issues today putting it all back in place... Now I see my fumb error and why it was too tight to get the caliper on 😅
    Regarding bleeding:
    On the hardware store I found a bottle with a hose with correct size for connecting on the nipple, and with a back flow block ventil.
    Do I can just push the break pedal without risking air going back inside.
    One man job 👍
    I bought 2 so I could take both sides at the same time 😂

    Be aware depressing the caliper with out releasing the bleeder nut as you could damage the ABS system as forcing fluid back up through the line will course damage in some units!!.🤔

      I pushed back the piston with a c clamp my whole life and never had to bleed it unless it wouldn't push back. Never damaged anything and I probably use this method about 20 times in my life
