Great video. Thanks. I was looking for help to see why my front LH brakes were dragging after changing the pads and specifics on how the anti-rattle clips were supposed to fit aganst th pads in case they had something to do with the dragging wheel. It turns out that some pad sets have two inner and two outer pads and if you don't fit inners on the inner and the outers on the outer it will cause problems. I had Bendix pads and at first glance the four pads looked the same, so I went ahead and fitted them randomly. However that's where I went wrong. On closer inspection after a lot of head scratching I noticed there was a difference in the rivet heads protruding through the backs of the pads. With two inners on the RH side - no problem. BUT two outers on the LH side caused the problem. The rivet heads were jamming the pistons. Maybe this info will help some of your viewers.

Thanks, something to pay attention to. Glad you worked it out :-)

@gtr71torana 2 дня назад
On the drivers side you have put the pads on wrong. The pad with the 2 male dimples in the middle is meant to be fitted to the inside.The outer pad has no male dimples in the middle so it doesn't fowl on the caliper . Have seen many people make this mistake
@Bbeavis

Hopefully others see this and don't make the mistake. Goes to show you cant trust people who make 'guides' on the internet.

3:40 I feel like I'm in an alternate universe where no one has heard of the Beatles or the word "fanatic." Why does no one properly pronounce the painfully obvious play Fanatec has made on the word fanatic? Are you all just messing with me? Are you purposely mispronouncing Fanatec as FAN-uh-tech instead of the ridiculously obvious proper pronunciation fu-NA-tech. Is this like how British people mess with Americans by purposely mispronouncing almost every English words? Like herb or basil or aluminum or schedule? (Hint: Herb is a dude that grows 'erb and sells it by the quarter ounce.)
@Bbeavis
@Bbeavis День назад
Yes, you are correct, English people speak the English language wrong, and Americans do it right.

Great video. I've called some mechanics and they had no clue. My torsen type 2 started to whine. So I've got to swap it out for a welded and the shafts seem too short. I do have another open to throw in for now or get welded. Even while I get the LSD looked at. Any reason for this? Guessing the welded diff is from an early mk1? But I'm sure it had the rubber guide. Ideally I don't want to swap the half shafts.
@Bbeavis
@Bbeavis День назад
Yes, sounds like you have the wrong spec diff. They early 1.6 size will bolt into the sub-frame, but shafts are different.

Changing fluid on a regular schedule is always a good idea, but not strictly necessary to do so when changing pads. I've not owned a VY so I cannot say - but the process would be very similar.

I'm glad something on my channel actually helped someone! That's so funny to me but cool. Just some things that will help: -Put some rubber sheets under the base if you're not bolting it down, it will stop it moving when you drive on (and off). -The motor is 10A, so you can rewire it to use a conventional socket. -If you recess it into the floor, cleaning a fluid spill is a nightmare so install drainage. -If you reverse on you drive off forward so you won't get skid marks on the floor. Doesn't bother me, but just an FYI.

It'll be worth checking the diff oil level since it will be lowered due to the leak. Also, a bit of lube on the sealing surface helps the seal from being burnt from friction. Cheers for making up the seal installer tool design! I printed one of your designs to do my rear main seal. 👍
