A car’s braking system is one of the most important components in your driving experience, as it’s the only thing keeping you from running over your Ex girlfriend/boyfriend. But most importantly getting into an accident. Make sure your brake pads are in proper working condition. 2003-2011 Mercury Grand Marquis/Crown Victoria/Lincoln Town Car.

3:25 what is it ? grease ? orange color why put it ?
Excellent video, very informative! What is the orange lubricant you're using? Maybe I found it…is it CRC Brake Caliper Grease?
New to working on vehicles here. Is this the same process for the front pads?
Where did you but your brake pads ?
Bro I just hit subscribe ✊
Thank you for the great video! I am replacing mine tomorrow!
Do you have to loosen up the e brake when changing ur rear brake n rotors ..?
Thanks for the informative vid, where do you get the rubber bushings from?
Nice video but you didn't show how to take the tension ( adjustment ) off the emergency brake in order to get the rotor off!
ton of rust! damn
Did ya really have to include that music?? Other than that, great video, thank you. Now go edit out that crap.
Outstanding job. Thanx for sharing
Nice work. Simple and strait forward. I'll be buying a Town Car soon and will be following this channel.
Thank you for the tutorial. I'm off to go do just that. Now I am mentally prepared and would have not had a nice big screwdriver (would have forgot the grease also.)with me for a tool if I had not watched.
Thanks for the great vid, but why the shitty music? It seems all vids like this have this same type of crappy rap based EDM shit. No rock or country in the free use libraries out there?
Awesome video. I have a 95 grand Marquis. The caliper is on the rear side of the rotor. Is the spring on brake pad is supposed to be on the top or bottom in this case?
Will this work for the 2003-2011 Lincoln Town Car?
The inner pad is supposed to clip in
Your videos on the Merc are awesome and very helpful. Post as many as you can of whatever you repair on one. I’ve changed my spark plugs and my coils thanks to you. I was kinda intimidated by the rotors and brakes but this video gave me confidence. That’s my next task. Thanks a million. God bless you!
Like and subscribed. Very very good video.
That was outstanding. Especially the music, it kept me locked in the entire vid. Now I can work on my Grand Marq.
Excellent "how to" video. Thanks for your time and effort, it was appreciated……
