I just bought this car from an auction and it needed front brakes, I made this video for other Jeep owners having the same problem and want to save hundreds of dollars.
We were out of brake grease so I did not put it on in the video,
but I do recommend it if you don’t want your brakes to squeak.
Hello, what size allen? I would like to buy one that fits on my ratchet. Thanks
For the driver-side front brake pad the outside one to be exact, does it matter if the little metal tab is on the top or bottom. I replaced mine and the previous one was on the bottom so I replaced it with the matching pad. As far as I could tell they looked symmetrical. Any input would help thanks.
thank you I have watched around 30 of the other brake style trying to my brake style on my 01 and you are the only one that I have seen with this style.
Thanks sooooo much can't wait to change my plugs
Great video! very helpful thanks!
when i do this job i connect a tube onto the bleed nipple before opening the bleed nipple and place it into a jar so when the piston is forced back the brake fluid goes into the jar and not back into the brake resovior filling it up…;-)
hack job, didnt lube the slides or contact points, also did not machine or replace the rotors which is critrical for proper burnishing of the pads
You didn't bleed your lines before putting the wheel back on?
I just changed my front brakes for the first time after watching this video. Everything was just fine. Exact same shitty break system. And did everything in the video, stops on a dime with no problems. Great video. Thank you. I got gouged on a break job last time that did not last 6 months. I try to do any work I can. Good Mechanics deserve well paid for their work but some over charge and hide behind a Secretary. Got to find a better shop or keep learning where I can -thanks again.
Leave out steps we know how to do in your vids like taking a tire off and on. Yeah I am critical but I feel that is my job to bitch and be negative. It is also the only thing I could say negatively other than its a good idea to lube the calliper slide pins. Good job
Yes those were ATE brake calipers.
No I bought those brakes from Oreilly Auto Parts
Thank you for viewing, I am sure i will make so more videos we have allot of vehicles in our fleet and i enjoy helping people out.
Thanks for the tip. I tried that on one of our ford trucks and it worked all lot better then how i was taught.
Thanks
yea i was out when i was making the video, and i forgot to mention it in the video
so thanks for reminding me
U should really apply brake lube on the contact points!!!
Next time compress the Caliper on the bracket Makes the job SOOOO much easy'er. 😀
