Why didn’t you replace that broken stud while you were in there? That was
a great time to do that.
Good video. But buy a cheap tripod for your camera. It will make it
easier for you and makes for better viewing. Thanks.
Very nice video
Thanks for this video Jon. I got the job done this afternoon. Not bad for
an old nana from down-under. Cheers mate.
i got confused when u used the clamp on the caliper. how do u know when to
stop compressing them? please reply!! btw great video. very informative and
i like how u showed the proper lubing methods
Don’t forget to pump the brake pedal after completing this job.
Don’t know it’s not my car. It was like that when I found it.
I did this brake job for a relative and so far he says there great. What
kind of car do you have?
I would put ceramics on especially on a truck anything else is likely to
make a lot of noise and dust. I use ceramics on my Toyota truck. You might
be able to get away with just cleaning the rotors, but it all depends on
how bad they are.
Hard for me to say without seeing it. You might want to try the new Kobalt
sockets they are supposed to work on stripped bolts.
Great video. How do you like the Wagner pads? I bought wagner pads
thermoquite on amazon for $25.00 there not cermaic pads. The instructions
say not to use any type of grease or shims with them. Do you like the pads
so far?
If the opportunity comes up, I will film it. Yes, the where indicators rub
on the rotors when the brake pads get thin making nose as you drive.
Great video!!
PB blaster Thanks for the comment
I actually did mention that in the description, but of course no one reads
that LOL! Thanks for the comment!
Sorry it was actually CRC freeze off penetrating oil from Pep Boys auto
parts.
What penetrating oil did you use?
Thank you so much!. I’m glad this video can help you.
Great informative video, I just have one question that pertains more to me.
I’ve stripped the bottom flange bolt, can i still get to the pads by taking
out the one on top?
Hi Bobby, You stop compressing the piston when it’s flush with the caliper
body. But a better method is to put the old brake pad over the piston and
squeeze it down. Sorry for the long response time and thanks for the kind
words!
what happened to the other wheel lug?
2002 nissan frontier 2wd. I wish removing the rotors were easy as yours. I
read the haynes manual and its a pain for me to do it. I read where I could
use emery cloth and just clean the rotors lightly. Do you think the cermaic
pads are better? I can return the wagner back to amazon and get the cermaic
pads.
great vid….can you do another vid on the rear breaks on the 99 honda crv?
and how does that break indicator work? does it just make a noise when it’s
time to change them or what
Thanks for taking time answering my question. I also appreciate this
comprehensive video you made. It’s one of the best I’ve seen for CRV brake
job.
Thank You! I try to try LOL!
