I successfully fitted the new brakes to my Boeing 747 thank you
Autozone has a tool that goes on the end of a socket wrench for $11 that
will turn the piston. I used it for mine and it worked great.. It is a
little cube taht has different prongs to fit different breaks.
Great video. Good detail. Thanks for sharing
A great how-to-video. very detailed for anyone to do their brakes. I would
have never known about twisting the cylinder to get it to retreat. I was
trying to force it back with a crowbar and no luck so i said i better check
youtube. Awesome. Only problem I had was the rubber boot around that
cylinder would twist with the cylinder so i had to pry the boot out of its
channel carefully and free it from the rust. i am in Canada. lol Thanks
so much.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Great video.
Great video. Thanks man.
Thanks for the help.
Will worn rear break pads make a squealing sound when making sharp right
turns?
Thanks!
Great vid. Most OEM pads from Honda come with metal shims and heat
resistant lube. Apply lube to both sides of outer shim and outside of inner
shim before installing-careful not to get on pad surface. Appears that
locktite was used (red paint on bolt head) on 12mm brake line retainer on
my ’10 Civic. I had to use heat gun on bolt after shielding brake and ABS
lines with foil. Never had that on other Honda’s i’ve had???
Dont forget to tighten in a star sequence
helped a bunch! never would have figured out that 12 bolt holding the brake
line
you seem like a good teacher. thanks for the video. 🙂
MY 2008 HONDA Civic had a 10mm bolt holding the rear caiiper on…you
mention a 12mm which was the size on the front caliper…!
great vid man! really helped me a lot! 😀 cheers!
Thanks!
Hey, I really appreciated your video! It really helped out a lot. Keep
doing what you do!
Yes, I would definitely apply a small amount of lube at the piston contact
points and slide points to help eliminate noise. Just don’t get any on the
pads or the rotor. Otherwise, nice video, thanks.
Very well done, not too fast, and very detailed. Great Job.
what no lube on the back brakes? Not necessary?
can you make a video how to change the serpentine belt on 2008 civic?
thanks so much
this video so helpful thank you so much
you are awesome sir. thank you.
Excellent instructional video! Really appreciate it!
So so helpful … You saved me about $500.00 Thank you
Thank you so much, brother! I was having a heck of a time trying to
compress the caliper with a c-clamp that was too small, so I gave up for
the night and went to you tube for some pointers. I came across your post
and come to find out I didnt need a c-clamp at all! And further, if I’d
have cranked on it with a larger c-clamp without rotating it I probably
would have broken something. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Keep up the great work!
or u could buy the break tool
Just what I needed to see. Doing this tomorrow on my Si. I usually pop the
top on the master cylinder to help the pressure go backwards in the system.
