I did my brakes and rotors recently had to use a 20lb sludge hammer to remove, I used enough anti seize to keep it from happening. My front end has new ones but when I press my brakes I can hear a clamping noice any idea.
My rotors get replaced every other year here in Pennsylvania
Really great videos. Appreciate your experience and clear method to both the videos and the example.
Excellent job explaining everything. Thanks so much!
Super helpful thank you!
Thank you soooooo so much for going into detail about removing the rotor. Helped me alot now that i got stuck!
Hell yea!!!
It would be helpful if you included the torque values for the bolts.
No , I can’t see nothing. What is the torque for the bolts?
Video was very informative and well done! Only question I have: Are the rear calipers able to be pushed in or do they need to be turned in?
Great video thanks .
Great instruction, thanks. One thing that could have been helpful, but not mentioned: there are two THREADED holes in the rotors. Had I seen them, I would have screwed two bolts into them, and tightened them against the end of the axle, to push the rotors off. Not knowing that, I had to pound all around the drum. then tap one the edge of the rotor, while turning it, to overcome the rust and get it off.
Excellent might have given a tiny bit more info on the type of grease used, I've bought high temp grease for slider pistons and red rubber for back of pads ok?
You said to torque the bracket bolts, but what is the torque spec? How many ft-lbs?
Jim:
The pads I got went into a description of a "break in" procedure for new pads and rotors. Your thoughts? It described a series of stops, or more accurately slow downs, from 35 or 40, then more from a slower speed, then a drive around to cool down… I had never heard of this before???
One of the best videos I've seen here. Clear instructions, list of tools, socket sizes, …, the works. Great site.
Thank you so much. Great video, very helpful
