Love your video! First time I had to deal with bearings when changing rotors. Hard to find Econoline videos on YouTube. You made it a cinch. 1,000 thanks!!!

I have a 2005 E-150 Is it the same thing? I am worried I will get into it then find I can't pull off the job. Will be stuck with a van on a jack stand 🙁

Nice video. I am replacing the rotors on my 1992 F150, and even though I pretty much know what I have to do, I like to look at other you tubes for a refresher, and sometimes I pick up a tip I didn't know. Also, I have two steel tubes about two feet long specifically for the purpose of extending the leverage on breaker bars and ratchets. They work well and have never caused a problem. Anyway, well done.

Where did you get those nice knee pads?

Fortim Heng says:

I like to keep my gasoline in the root beer too

Kevin Sheffield says:

Nice job! Yes pliers work, tighten and back off works just fine.

Ivan Zucconi says:

Never use a scaffold pipe to extend a tool. Use instead a calibrated torque wrench set to Veich manufacturer spec. Other than that good effort.

Where did you buy the parts? I have heard experiences from other guys that had difficulty with parts and fit, based on store they purchased from.

Abe Groter says:

25-27lbs.ft, back-off 1/2 turn, set 17 in.lbs (a pair of $0.75 pliers doesn't seem to make a ton of sense here.)

Todd Benson says:

Yes NOT a E-150

Denise Compton says:

Claude Rains says:
