does a Corolla have rear rotors?
Thanks..now I'm not afraid to try it myself. I'm glad he slowly went through the steps so that a layman such as myself, doesn't feel intimidated…
Good info, however better video with clear close ups would help! Thank you for the detailed explanation!
Very informative helpful step-by-step video. Thank you. However, send the camera man back to school. Too much jiggling and zooming. Keep it steady. Perhaps a tripod or monopod?
Very well explained! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, blessings
Ha, I just found out my son's old Corolla has rear drum brake which I have never dealt with. And your detailed video made me confidant about what I need to to with it. Thank you!
excellent video very informative thanks Jim!!!
What size is the bolt used to loosen the hub?
How do you re adjust the shoes for the hand break
Well done video Jim, easy to follow. I have a 02 Highlander and I did go ahead and get a new caliper, and rotor due to rust, the old one had frozen, it's the original. but now I can't get the new rotor over the parking brake. I didn't really do anything to the parking brake other than moving the star wheel to close the pads in, now the star wheel has stopped or stuck and won't close the pads any further. I still cant't get the rotor on. Do I need to clean with brake cleaner and keep working with the wheel? Idk, I'm afraid I'll mess it up even more. I hope I don't have to reassemble the parking brake. Thank you
Hold the camera steady, show each part upclose, how it came out, how it goes back in. Thanks for what I learned.
Hi Jim,
Thanks for the video. How much for all the parts i.e. pads, cleaner and grease?
Jim, thank you for all the automotive instruction you have provided over the years. With that said, I have to say this is the one time I had a hard time following you. I think the camera guy and you were not in sync during this repair.
Thank you sir!
Great video, I've learnt a lot thanks. What grease can I use as substitute for break grease because here (Zambia) I haven't had any luck in finding it anywhere.
What size are the bolts used to remove the drum?
Thank you sir. I personally appreciate that. love to see that. despite I'm not a mechanic, enjoyed alot.
Thanks a bunch for the video, clear instruction. Hard to film this tho, hats off to the cameraman, but I had to have a drink afterwards!
The cameraman had one job to do…
Ever found a shoe spring removal tool that has a 90° to fit behind the hub face for extra tight spaces
