Dude, thank you for the video man. Very detail and on point, I’ll be
changing my breaks soon so I’ll be using you tips.
Thanks a lot it really help
if the brake gives you an old door sound opening when you press the
brake… after you replace it…what could be the problem?
thanks for this!…..is there a situation where you ever have “bleed the
break lines” like i heard they did in the old days?
what model car is this? thanks
hi, good question, this job is extensively metric.. just get a cheap set of
metric sockets and 3/8 drive, and some metric wrenches and your off to
grease land… try any local hardware store, harbor freight, or northern
tool and you can find a cheap set with a lifetime warranty for $30 it’ll be
well worth it for other projects as well.
you’re awesome! thanks for the video.
Great video it has a huge help!!
Ty…this helped a lot..changed my brakes in 10min
very helpful video thanks alot!
thanks for the video…helped allot
Yes, when you compress the caliper you are pushing fluid out of the caliper
pistons threw the hose and back up into the reservoir. Usually this wont
make the fluid overflow though, unless someone has added fluid to the
reservoir at some point or possibly the reservoir is just small. Dont
worry, just make sure everything’s together and filled to the line.
This might be a stupid question but what is the common size of sockets
needed to do this job? Reason i ask is I have to buy new hand tools and
ain’t loaded with money. Thanks for your help.
This is awesome but I have one question. When you compress the caliper does
the master cylinder over flow with brake fluid? I have to do this on a
nissan quest because the rotors are warped. Thanks for this video awesome
help.
good question, some people say you should treat the brake lines and
calipers like new born infants but im not one of them.. haha the brake line
holds around 2000psi of fluid pressure every time you hit the brakes during
thousands of cycles a day and at extreme pressures.. if me tugging on the
line was enough to rip the line then it needs to be replaced. now use
judgement i wouldn’t use the brake line for a tow strap but im not going to
baby it either.. have fun and don sweat the small stuff.
Dude, you’re the mechanic, not me, but is it cool to pull the caliper off
and drop it, letting the fluid line take all the force and weight? I’ve
heard that you need to hold onto them before hanging them from a wire or
other hanging device so you don’t damage the hoses…
yes of course, but you shouldnt have to bleed brakes unless air has somehow
been introduced into the brake system ,For instance, if a hose was leaking
or caliper. In a normal brake job you shouldnt have to bleed the brakes
though. have fun beau
awsome vid…learn alot bro…i hope u keep making more informative vids
bro..
